I've had good experience with firestarter. It's a gtk program to set up a firewall. I only tried the version in Sid but it worked pretty well. It asks you some pretty simple questions (do you want to run any service, etc.) and then sets up a basic firewall for you. Then you can fine tune it if you want.
