I recommend Darren Reed's IPfilter package, which comes with OpenBSD,
and installs easily on FreeBSD and NetBSD. It also works with SunOS
and Solaris, and I think even more operating systems. It is highly
configurable. Blocking all incoming TCP connections except to a few
host/port pairs should be quite simple.
You can get it at ftp://coombs.anu.edu.au:/pub/net/firewall/ip-filter
