WaterRoof 1.8 (Mac OS X)

Great application, thanks.  

This is a very nice tool for experienced users. It is a very rich and stable application. Net admins usually prefere to use the shell terminal to configure ipfw firewall on osx/freebsd, but with WaterRoof you can speed up it dramatically. The logging option is great, it's very easy to find entries and to make/understand stats. The manual is too vague, but if you want to use WaterRoof you don't need a good WaterRoof manual... you just need to learn how firewalls work. This is really recommended to every net admin searching for a fast tool for configuring, testing and troubleshooting a firewall. [alert admin]

Amazing and safe !!  

I'm the developer, and I would like to answer your question. First of all it's a very clever question. Everybody should ask himself if an application is reliable or not. The best way to answer is to look at source code. My application is written in applescript, and the source code is available at my web site. The application includes a binary of outguess, which is open source stuff too. I've compiled it without modifying it,…

Only operates from the admin account  

I don't understand what you mean, really. This is not a content filter, but a ipfw firewall frontend. Logs are related to system network activity. The log file analyzed by WaterRoof is created by Mac OS X, no more and no less than what you should expect. There is no "user level" related activities that cannot/are not be logged. And of course you need an admin account to set up firewall rules... I think you are…
