Anyone out there have some handy scripts for putting together a decent
packet filtering firewall (read : pretty secure) using ipchains?

Platform is redHat 6.2 (7.1 was a pain to setup!).

Config is PII233 256MB Ram 5.1 GB HDD (512 Swap, small /boot, 1024 /, and
the rest assigned to /user)
Later I plan to put /var on a separate partition but or now, I just want to
get my head around ipchains firewalling.

Thanks in advance..
