how to make an effective firewall with iptables
would you guys say this is an effective firewall script,
iptables -F iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -j DROP |

Sadly, you now need to ask the author for a password, but it's free. But personally, I'd use IPCHAINS. It looks like you're not intending to do anything which would require IPTABLES, and IPCHAINS is simpler to configure. |

My reccomendation would be to download a GUI frontend for iptables, specifically GuardDog. It works great and is very effective.
