Also a good starting point is easy firewall generator:

Easy Firewall Generator is a PHP Web application that generates an 
iptables firewall script.
 
The generated script is designed for a single system connected to 
the Internet or a system acting as a gateway/firewall for a small 
private network.
 
The generator prompts recursively for a variety of options. When the 
selected options form a complete set, it generates and returns a 
commented firewall script based on those options. The generator 
includes documentation on iptables and each option.
