I am new to fedora list, so if I submitted this in the wrong place, please correct me.
Would someone point me to a good tutorial or manual to learn how to set up a good firewall with Linux? I could just use my McAfee subscription, if that would be just as good as manually configuring my IP tables. Just let me know, I don't mind doing it myself, I enjoy it, but I would need to know how. I have no idea.
Also, is it possible to configure Ximian Evolution 1.4.5 to automatically execute in one of my windows when starting Fedora? Or, is it possible to configure Ximian Evolution to notify me when new mail arrives without having the program running?
Thanks for your patience,
Jason.

Be ready to do some reading and learning if you are not already familiar with how packets are moving through your computer.

Jason, this half of your message would be more appropriate at fedora-list which is for general fedora-related questions. Please subscribe and send messages there. But to answer your question yes Evo can be added to the startup session by Hat -> Preferences -> More Preferences -> Sessions and then add evolution to the Startup Programs tab. Evo can't notify you of new mail if it's not running but there's a little panel applet that could do this (among other ways). Right-click the panel, then Add to panel -> Internet -> Inbox Monitor and point it to your mail settings.
