I really like jay's firewall. Simple yet effective

I like firestarter. It has a little GUI wizard. You tell it the interface, what services (if any) to allow the internet to connect to, if you want any ICMP filtering, and that's about it. It creates a file called firewall.sh. I renamed it rc.firewall, made it executable, and stuck it in /etc/rc.d.

I like arno's iptables script.
You can just setup this and let it run. It is very easy and out of the way.
