[ale] IpTables management?

[ryan at neily.net (Ryan Neily)]

I am really struggling with managing 3-4 firewalls with raw IPTables
scripts.  They are all driving me mad, and I am getting to the point where
I am sure that they are not the safest firewall implementations just
because the Iptable script it so convoluted and LONG.

Anyways, I am looking at different firewall projects that offer iptables
functionality through their own implementation.  I've found the Shorewall
project which looks nice, any others I should look at?

I'm spending way too much time implementing iptables changes, rather than
getting actual work done!
