Which is the best firewall you all would reccomend me using. I have a brand new Plesk 6 box, Pentium 4 2.0GHz, - Red Hat enterprise... What would you reccomend? Is there a place I can go to so that I can get some sort of step by step instruction for installing it - thanks :)

Greetings:

Are you looking for a hardware firewall? Software firewall? Who will manage the firewall?

Also, when you look at hardware firewalls, you generally look at throughput, how many servers will be behind them et all.

Thank you.

APF and KISS work well if you are looking for software firewalls
