Application level firewall

Is there any sort of application level firewall for linux? Something like Zone alarm where you can trust an application? I think that openBSD has something that allows you to choose which system calls a program can run. The idea would be to restrict a bind call and connect call using kernel modules unless the program is in a config file. It would make it easier (i would think) to lockdown a computer for outgoing connections as well as add a new layer of security. -- Jason Freidman <jason.full-disclosure () compnski com> _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
