Back around 2001 I came across a GUI tool that could be
used to generate rules for ipf, ipfw, ipchains, and iptables.
I believe it added support for pf and pix.

Unfortunately, I've forgotten the name, but I suspect a query on
freshmeat would find it.

These are the things I discovered.
1) A GUI is no replacement for clue.
2) If you do have a clue, the GUI will tend to get in your way.
3) If you don't have a clue, you can make bigger mistakes faster.

I tossed it in favor of vi and manually making a backup copy before editing.
