which firewall I should install in 6.06

[Simon Wong]

For an office setup, I use shorewall for the firewalling (uses iptables)
and Squid as the web proxy.  Have to admit I haven't setup any content
filtering but there are quite a few to choose from eg dansguardian and
others.

I usually do all this via CLI because it's the best way for remote
administration.  Many of these apps don't have GUIs.

If you are in Brisbane feel free to give me a call.

Simon.
