I *was* polite to you even though you don't think so. If you had posted this
sort of question in a Linux newsgroup here is the answer you would have
gotten:

****
For Windows: either technet.com or JFGI
For Linux: man iptables

For comparisons of the two, read all about the structure of Windows Firewall
and then read all about the structure of Linux Firewall and see what
differences there are, if any. Venn Diagrams are helpful tools.
****

And here is an extra helping tip - even though you won't think it is -
before you post in any Linux newsgroup to find out about iptables, read
this:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

It will save you getting your feelings hurt.

EOT for me.
