Needed! - Software for PDA and firewall

[cwbaldwin]

Trying to do EVERYTHING on linux. Any recommendations for:

1 - A firewall/security product like Zone Alarm? I really like it's ability to detect bots attempting outband contact with a remote server.

2 - PDA software like the Palm Desktop?

Thanks all!

Linux firewalling stuff comes built in, and there are tonnes of front-ends - try Googling for 'linux firewall gui'

Firestarter is quite good, IIRC.

PDA linkage - Evolution has good compat with Palms. JPilot is the other main prog. Not sure what Palm Desktop is tho.

IF you are using Gnome, I have found the Palm Pilot software just excellent. There is some setup to be done, as usual, but it's easy, and well documented, and works great. Look for gpilotd and friends. In applets, it's PilotSync.
