Re: Firewalls
Under Linux, I use iptables. What else is there to use?
Under Windows, I use the XP SP2 firewall. I used to use ZoneAlarm, since I had no idea what I was doing and that seemed like a good tool. The SP2 firewall is nowhere as demanding as ZoneAlarm and fits my needs excellently.
If you want some measure of outbound protection without any extra tools on Windows XP and 2000, open up the MMC to the IPSEC policy page and create a policy to block all inbound/outbound to any unneeded ports.
