how to setup FC3 firewall


Greetings,

I'm a newbie to Linux and just started using FC3.
I've used SuSE 9.1 Personal in the past.
I would now like to setup the firewall on FC3.

In SuSE, there was a file i could edit called "SuSEfirewall2.conf".
Does FC3 have a file similar to this? If so, where is it located?
If not, how do i go about setting up the firewall in FC3?

Eventaully i would like to restrict access to my SSH server by IP address.
I would also like to restrict access to my Desktop Sharing server by IP address.
And eventually restrict access to my Apache web server by IP, Subnet, etc.

Thanks for your time,

*Nick*

FC3 uses iptables and is configured through /etc/sysconfig/iptables.

There's also a gui app in Gnome. If I remember correctly (not at my own box right now) it's at "Applications->System preferences->security"
