Actually I have both (I know a little overkill). I had
a security firm create a firewall to run on the boxes
themselves. Then last month the NOC where my machines
are housed ran a promo for fireboxes for their rack
customers. Of course I jumped right in because I'm
always looking for a good sale :-) But I'll probably
drop the firewall on the machines once I learn a
little more about IPTables which is what's running on
the box from my NOC. The RaQ's run IPChains. They're
similar but still very different.

If you're going to setup your own firewall script, you
might want to try this tool:
