C++ Firewall

[JP]

I am thinking about making a firewall in C++, not Visual C++, just
C++. Could anyone point me in the right direction in the form of
tutorials or examples or something like that?

As of right now it will be a Windows firewall, but I am hoping to port
it to Linux not long after it is done.

Thanks.

Way off-topic for this news-group I would expect.

However, contact me privately, I have be interested in doing this for some
time and may be able to help

The standard C++ library does not offer facilities to do this. You will
need platform specific functions, which are beyond the scope of this
newsgroup.
