Does anyone here know where I can find a good tutorial that shows how to install a firewall on a CentOS serevr? I've just purchased a server and wanted to know what kind of security features I'll need and how i'll be able to install them on the server.

For simplicity ensure Webmin is installed as this makes it easier for configuring all the rules.

I'm no expert on this myself but I had a new Centos server which was already configured for basic rules. Webmin made it easy to add / delete what I didn't need.
