Blah I installed APF
I figure it is the most common so it is the best.
What is the suggested TCP and UDP port settings?

Use the search And try this http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showth...hreadid=227090 for starters... You may also want to install BFD alongside APF.

Just make sure you get your control panel ports, they all use different ports.

IG_TCP_CPORTS="20,21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,465,993,995,2082,2083,2086,2087,2095,2096,3306,7786,10000,35000_35999"
IG_UDP_CPORTS="20,21,53,873,1040"
Suggestions on those ports?
I'm installing BFD now.

No clue, they were suggested to me by another user.
I believe 7786 is plesk but I'm not sure...
My server is at the planet.
They told me I've got to allow all TCP UDP on all ports for their monitoring.. You ever heard of this?

Plesk runs on 8443. And we write our own firewalls.

iptables is too complicated. I am using APF tool, it is really good.
current version:
http://www.rfxnetworks.com/downloads/apf-current.tar.gz
you can also use debug mod to test it until you are satisfied.

Just out of curiosity, why not invest/lease a hardware firewall. Much easier to maintain, robust, tons of functions, etc.
