Hi all,
This is an interesting article that discusses the challenges we face as
users and developers of iptables. The premise of the article is that
when you combine all the ports a modern PC user needs open with software
that "hijacks" standard ports for other uses, you end up with a
perimeter firewall that has little value. Ouch!
