Check out arno-iptables-firewalls.  The debian package comes with
debconf setup, which is adequate for a basic NAT configuration.  If
you want to do more advanced things (e.g., port forwarding, DMZ, etc.),
the configuration file is easy to understand and modify.  I've been
using it for a couple years, and I like it much better than some of
other choices, such as firestarter (blech).
