Firewall Builder
Firewall Builder is featured in May issue of the Linux Journal. It’s interesting how often things that are right under your very nose are passing by unnoticed. A couple of my friends, Vadim Kurland and Vadim Zaliva, have been working on this tool for ages and I even remember Vadim Zaliva recommending it to me when I was having problems setting up my firewall properly (yes, I am a networks dummy). At the time I had a very old version of RedHat on my server, so I failed to install it. Later, I upgraded to RedHat 8.0 but somehow, I forgot about this wonderful program, and to add Wi-Fi segment to my home network I again had to go though the settings manually – it was such a pain!
So I guess, now that they have been mentioned in the press twice (first time in some German Linux Magazin in 2001), it’s about time I gave Firewall Builder a try.
