The title "Firewalls for dummies" is misleading. No, it does not talk to the layperson, or even someone trying to setup a home firewall. Rather, it targets manager-types at companies that have basic tcp/ip experience. The first 150 pages or so doesn't even have any solid examples of allow/deny rules. There is another book called "internet security for dummies". This should have probably been that book, because the depth it goes into general security issues like antivirus, file attachements, mail security is much more general than firewalls. Plus I think I see a few errors in the book and am unable to locate an errata for it online. I wrote to the FirewallsForDummies[at]hotmail.com address thats mentioned in the book to ask the authors for errata info, and it bounced back as mailbox not available.
