firewalls

I'm trying out ubuntu -- coming from Fedora -- and I can't seem to find an
appropriate firewall. Suggestions?

I'm used to using the RH 'firewall' script to start and restart the
firewall, and to writing the rules myself. I installed from the alternate
CD, in order to have the most flexibility. My network is behind a router
with NAT, and I want to run sshd and a mail server on one machine and a web
server on another. It's the former that needs to restrict connections.

Shorewall seems a bit much; I've read about fwbuilder, but is it availabe in
the repositories?
