We like DEC's Altavista Firewall. It has a web browser interface and nice
little traffic lights that are red, yellow, or green depending on the
status of various things. It is fairly simple to deal with but the initial
configuration and installation are not for the clueless. I suppose that's
true of any firewall or heavy duty security system. We're running it on a
low-end Digital Unix workstation but there is a version that will run on
an NT box.
