 I don't, but I've never looked for one.  Seriously though, it
shouldn't be too hard to do it by hand unless you have a truly
internecine set of rules.  Doing the first few steps "by hand"
and then editing the config file (with a backup!) lets you get
it right one step at a time, and it's easy to tweak.

 It also lets you set up boxes without needing a working install
of X windows libraries; and on a real firewall you probably want
an absolute minimum of installed software (makes Tripwrire run a
bit faster if there's not too much stuff to inspect :o)
