[luau] Firewalls for Linux

[MonMotha]

A simpler solution (without all the fancy GUIs of course) is possibly on 
a much lower powered system than this.

I personally ran my 56k using an older version of my iptables ruleset on 
a 486-SX/25 with 24MB of RAM.  Worked great.

Of course, I'm plugging my ruleset, but it's also possible to write your 
own of course.  It does require some networking knowledge of course, but 
it can also be a great learning experience.  On the plus side, the box 
doesn't have to be very powerful at all (a 486 should be able to handle 
a cable connection, though a P133 or so might be a safter bet).
