"lokkit"

By Juergen Haas, About.com

Definition: lokkit: The Lokkit utility attempts to provide firewalling for the average Linux end user. Instead of configuring firewall rules, Lokkit asks asmall number of simple questions and writes a firewall rule set for you. Lokkit is not designed to configure arbitrary firewalls. To make it simple to understand, it is solely designed to handle typical dialup user and cable modem setups. It will not provide a complex firewall configuration, and it is not the equal of an expert firewall designer.
