Hi everyone,

Joined the list a few weeks ago, and as always, lurked to get a feel... 
glad I did.

Is there a list somewhere that is more for newbies where I can ask dumb 
questions and not feel like I just stepped off a bus at Times Square 
with no clothes on?

;)

Really - IPTables rules mystify me. What I need is some help translating 
plain english (ie, I want to block everything except x, y and z) to the 
appropriate IPTables command/rule. This list appears to be far too 
technical for my needs...

Tia for any pointers or suggestions...

Charles
