 Form Validators
 --------------------------------------
-ISIPV4 does a manual check, PHP5 now has FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4 which may be better.
-There also will be a time to add ISIPV6 or ISIPADDR to validate for IPv6 or both

 Administration module

-- Add a firewall configuration form. Any suggestions for a good firewall

--- There are a few options here. Some are already started. I (lathama) would

-   other modules.

+	* Monitor existing IPTABLES rules is done and in the monitor page.
+	* Add IPTABLES rules
+		semi-functional and in development also functional in multiserver
+	* Delete IPTABLES rules
+		semi-functional and in development also functional in multiserver
+	* Merge IPTABLES rules made from the CLI with those made from ISPConfig3
+		Interesting topic about merging control with with the GUI and the CLI
+		interface for a systems adminitstrator who might add a rule during an
+		attack or for trouble shooting and forget to remove it.
+	* Fail2Ban
+		Add configuration for fail2ban on certian systems.  Imagine an admin
+		wishes to use fail2ban on one service but not others. Rare but an issue
+		when a large number of clients use a single NAT for all users and failed
+		logins and traffic looks like an attack.  Maybe a whitelist configuration
+		as an optional setting.
+	* Remoting
+		Enable remoting hooks for updating IPTABLES
+	* Service Checks
+		Adding saftey checks to make sure that the admin does not lock his/herself
+		out of the system by accident.  We all make mistakes.

 -- Note: I'd love a pure iptables firewall as well. I've made such a script for
    my work, which uses a simple config file to open/close ports and support for 
    ip exclusions. I think we could use it as a base to start with, it's up on the dev forum

---- The complete PHP IPTables script is currently working on my test platform.
-	I am developing a wizard and a method of reporting if the rules in the database
-	and the running rules do not match.  This is taking a lot of effort to effectivly
-	"bend over backwards" to allow both the ISPConfig admin and the system admin
-	to work with the rules.  This will work with all distros and most any version.
-	Most of the code is in trunk now.
