connected to the internet.

Other Software Required:
- a Linux kernel with iptables, QUEUE and NETLINK support.
- iptables developpment components
- perl 5.6.x
- IPTables::IPv4::IPQueue
- NetPacket::IP

Other Comments:
I created this project because each time I talk about it, people want such 
fonctionnalities for a firewall. I do not promise it will give Ro><Or top level 
rock security for yea        rs but it worked well for a year to me and I am 
happy with it.
