IP Tables Administration Software Linux

Can anyone recommend any good software for adminstration of IP Tables in Linux, creating rules in the shell is a tricky job for the amount of rules I want to create!

Any ideas are much appreciated!
Thanks
Josh

Guarddog is a KDE app that's great for setting up the firewall. From there you need a good intrusion detection/firewall logging application.

I know that, I was just looking for something to sit on top of that, or even better work with Netfilter directly.
