Hi
Can anyone recommend a free Firewall that preferably is rule based and
only has a small footprint.
I would like something that handles fragmented packets. (see the recent
threads about Kerio 2.1.5.)
I am presently using the latest Kerio, which I think is good, but it
take a large slice of memory.

Thanks

Seasons greetings to all.

John

If you want a traditional software firewall you might try Filseclab.
Rule based with the usual features. Here is a link:

Another possibility is Jetico, although it is more annoying with a lot
of popups until you get it tamed:

Yet another light one is SensiveGuard. Link here also:

All of the above are free and fairly light, much lighter than the newer
Kerio 4.xx incarnations. More on the par of Kerio 2.
