- GUI Tool to build Firewall on Ubuntu Linux - Firestarter

Firestarter is a firewall tool for Linux, and uses GNOME. You can use the wizard to create a basic firewall, then streamline it further using the dynamic rules. You can open and close ports with a few clicks, or stealth your services giving access only to a select few. It features a real-time hit monitor which you can watch as attackers probe your machine for open ports.

Firestarter itself is not a firewall, rather, it is a frontend for configuring iptables, which is the firewall system built into the Linux kernel.
