The newer Mandrakes use Shorewall for their firewalling.  There should be a shorewall
directory in /etc.  The files are very well commented.  You will want to pay particular
attention to the 'rules' file.  There are also a couple of good tutorials at
www.shorewall.net.  If, by some chance, you are using Multi-Network Firewall there is a
very nice web interface to open ports.  Come to think of it, Mandrake 8 or later
includes a simple interface to the firewall in the control center but that would only
be available if the desktop were install (unlikely if this is a dedicated firewall
machine).


Hope that at least gets you going in the right direction.
