Ryan,
Do you know if there is a port for Bastille ?
Bastille Linux is a Hardening and Reporting/Auditing Program which
enhances the security of a
Linux box, by configuring daemons, system settings and firewalling.
It currently functions on
most major Linux distributions as well as Mac OSX and HP-UX
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bastille-linux/
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=403
Doesn't appear to be one.
[/mnt]# port list bast*

What does bastille do that OS X doesn't, out of the box? Does the OS X firewall compare to what's available for Linux?
There are probably a lot more linux-savvy people on this list: I haven't looked at it in years (The BSDs are where I look for UNIX-y goodness that I can't get from OS X).
