Hi,

Does any one apply any kind of firewall on their Cpanel/Linux server, or does Cpanle have any kind of firewall feature built in it.?

And any recommendations on using any firewall for a Cpanel/Linux Server ? & How TO.

More than likely, iptables/net filter will be available to you. Just use that.

Yes, it is useful, provided you configure it properly.

Yes protection with a firewall with decent iptables rules is advised and not hard to implement at all :D
