Better yet, install it yourself.
While the author does recomend their use, neither ipchains
or ipfwadm are required to run portsentry. Worse yet, perhaps, many
seasoned system admins that run very tight ships will tell you not
to run portsentry in this manner. If you feel you absolutely must
dump the route then, you guessed it, route will do the job more
than well enough to get you in really big trouble if you get too
carried away with your choice of ports :-)
