Not exactly.
Ipchains will be active but then it needs to be configured.
By far the easiest firewall utility that 'front-ends' for
Ipchains is Pmfirewall.

You'll need to be careful when you run through the PM install
and have a rudimentary knowledge of which ports and IP's you
want to deny or allow.
As many have mentioned before in other posts a good base start at
securing your server is:
Portsentry
LogCheck
PMFirewall
Ipchains
TripWire
SSH: Updated
Bind: Updated
ProFTPd: Updated
