Hi.

I'm running Ubuntu Edgy Eft and want to configure a firewall as I may be 
moving my pc outside work firewall.

Tried Firestarter and  kmyfirewall

the latter seems to allow me to do what I want - enable web/smtp/ssh 
access and turn off all else.

I'm finding it hard to figure out how to do this with Firestarter.

Any recommendations/suggestions?

Thanks,

John
