Thanks to Carla and Hamster for the links. The two articles on Building
Firewalls with iptables, Part 1 and 2 were very helpful. The address
for Building Firewalls with iptables Part 2 should read
http://networking.earthweb.com/netsecur/article.php/2219571, but that
article on Building a Linux Dial-up Server was great too!
I've a basic script up and running and I'm slowing closing all the
ports and adding entries one by one.
Thanks for all the help.
Wendy
