fireflier is a firewall tool, which is built on top of the iptables framework. It all started in February 2002, when I was sitting on my computer and doing the firewall settings for a small server. I realized, that allthough I know about firewall rules, my desktop machine was not secure, with which I was working all the time. The reason for this was very simple: It was just to annoying, to modify the rules all the time when I wanted to try something new (Shoutcasting, Samba, ...). At that time I started searching for a tool to easily manage my firewall rules, but at that time my search was not successful. So I decided to write my own tool, which I wanted to be able to manage a firewall in a very convenient way. As I did some research, I soon realized, that the iptables offered a very convenient possibility, to pass packets down to userspace. And so I started to write FireFlier, which should provide a personal firewall - easy to manage and with a nice interface. Anyways: as the installation is not very easy, this project is aimed at system administrators, who do know a little about kernel compilation, and firewalls in general. Nevertheless I will answer installation questions.. Get licq-osd at SourceForge.net. Fast, secure and free downloads from the largest Open Source applications and software directory. licq-osd is a licq plugin which provides an On Screen Display on new messages. Whenever a message arrives it is displayed on screen as an OSD message for a few seconds. Development is done at the main licq svn repository.
