Nice.  I could've used this last week.  I did find fwbuilder, instead, 
which is harder to use but much more powerful.  But for what I wanted, 
quicktables would have been perfect.

I hope you will consider adding some more standard recipies to quicktables.  
For instance, syn-flood protection is easy to add, and should probably be 
in most firewalls.  I think there are several such iptables recipies that 
would be easy and could make a big difference.

Thanks,

Michael
