This document discusses Linux network security and the xFirewall program. It provides an overview of Linux and its networking capabilities. It then describes iptables, the built-in Linux firewall, and xFirewall, a user-friendly frontend for iptables. xFirewall detects network attacks and logs unauthorized access based on allowed ports in its configuration file. The document shows nmap scan results for a system running xFirewall, demonstrating that it only allows connections to specified open ports and blocks other ports from being discovered.
