ipchains, fairly loose rules. It's a debian stable box, very very little running on the machine. The ISP doesn't block anything as far as I am aware - it's a pretty good ISP, broadband and they aren't too fussy about people running webservers, etc off their connections. (No mail servers, and only 10 inbound connections allowed), and it is presented to us as an ethernet connection (Horrah - non of this "It's a consumer ISP therefore you MUST use USB!) Andrew
