Hi all,

I was just wondering, is Netfilter as good as Cisco's PIX and Checkpoint's Firewall-1, if not better?

Also I'm wondering say if I have a dmz and allow people to come into a server on port 80, will netfilter inspect the packet on all 7 layers of the OSI model and make sure that it is actually a http packet and following the rules and protocol specifications of http? Sorta like checkpoints INSPECT module.

Thanks.

- Krish
