Greetings,
As I've mentioned we're about to plug into broad band
internet connectivity.  I'm going to be using my Freebsd
box (4.3-release) as the router from my internal network
to my ISP connection for internet traffic.  I'm am quite
paranoid about the 24/7 connect and hackers beating on it.

The machine that will be the router will also be the firewall.
I need a good set of rules to really tighten things down.  Is
there a website, or someplace to get a great set of rules ?

I also have to run nat as my internal LAN has private non-routable
IP addresses (192.168.1.*).


Anybody have any links that cover these topics in a thorough manner?

Should I install tripwire or some other intrusion detection to help
monitor things?

thanks,
Darryl
