Can I borrow this thread, sir? To save postage.... and to further expound upon this inquiry. I'll be commandeering this thread so what I ask now, is assistance. I am presenting the same question. Only I wish to install a corporate level firewall, on a mock- online game network. Pure generics. None the less, this trial is project status.. so I need to know the best firewall one would recommend for a Linux server hosting an online game. Is it really IPtables..?
