Hi. I would like to hear some oppinions about few firewall's you people are using on Slackware. I'm mostly interested in the ones with GUI and easy to handle. What would you recommend?

Firestarter and Guarddog are fairly easy to run.

Yeah, well I really liked Firestarter but it has so many gnome dependencies and I don't use that...

I would recommend shorewall + webmin then. shorewall only depends on iptables and webmin on perl which is installed by default. personally i just use shorewall and it is very easy to manage once you get the hang of it.
