Thanks, but firestarter has to run on the actual firewall (thus not
meeting the "multiple firewall/central repository requirement"), and the
only GUI I've been able to locate for shorewall is a webmin plugin,
which implicitly is the same as the above (quite aside from the dubious
security scenario of running webmin on a firewall).
