EnGarde Secure Linux Review

Through the System menu, you can access a variety of security-related settings, backup, and maintenance functions such as specifying the machines that can connect to the server, or which machines can access the GD WebTool. Through this menu you can also navigate to the firewall configuration page. Configuring the EnGarde Firewall through the GD Webtool is a snap: you can configure global firewall settings, shut down and restart the firewall, add trusted and un-trusted interfaces, enable or disable firewall modules that enable or disable services such as FTP and PPTP to be transferred through the firewall, set up port forwarding rules, and set blacklists of hosts and networks from which to block access.
