Thanks for the suggestion, but where do I get ipf?  I don't see it in the
FreeBSD packages region under networking or security.  The closest I see
in functionality I see is xinetd, but it only seems to allow me to specity
ip addresses to enable/disable, but does not seem to have an option to
specify the network interface.

I guess xinetd is better than nothing, if I trust the outer firewall to
filter out unexpected incoming ip addresses, but the whole point is that I
do NOT trust the outer firewall to do it's job perfectly.

Regards,

orville.
