Simple firewall needed for FreeBSD
by rng from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5ER8V)
I recently installed FreeBSD and it is working very well. I am using it on a desktop with XFCE4.
I want to install a firewall which should permit only web browsing with Firefox etc (and downloading from web). I know about iptables from my Linux experience but apparently that is not used in FreeBSD.
How can I setup a simple firewall which permits only web browsing and downloading from web? Thanks for your help.
