I have always wondered what does a firewall really do for one? I mean why should one have one for their web servers and what kind of protection does it give to protect against hackers or what not? If i was to install a firewall what types of programs should I install? Any responses would be appreciated. The servers i'm mainly running would just be DNS, Web Server, and mail server.
