Soon I will be getting a wireless intenet connection with a static IP address and will be more concerned about having a firewall in place. I have looked around at places like mostgraveconcern and the complete FreeBsd book for examples of firewalls. I am a fairly intelligent person but these all look like Greek to me. I want to set up a simple firewall so i can continue to have a small web page on my server and also allow my three other computers to file share and get out on the internet. If anyone knows any easy to understand instructions or examples i would be very gratefull.
