Dear Robert,
IMHO you should switch to iptables. Concerning the configuration of
iptables, install the package shorewall and check out
http://www.shorewall.net I switched a year ago from ipchains to
iptables and configure my firewall within a few days just by reading the
two following documents:
-) iptables :http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html
-) shorewall : http://www.shorewall.net/two-interface.htm
My server/firewall runs serveral services to the local network and
towards the internet and setting it up with shorewall was very easy and
gave me much fullfillment in the sense that I had the feeling I
configured it very sophisticated with help of shorewall.
grtz,
Asim
Hi
Have anybody a good recommendation for an easy to use firewall with port
forwarding ?
I got a home network with a dedicated (Debian of course) firewall box with
ADSL connected, and ipmasq package installed.
My problem is that I don't know HOW I should put in the various rules in
ipmasq => Which makes me look for something simpler or some examples or tips.
What I want to do is open up for incoming mail and http to be able to access
my mailserver and internal webserver from internet, but not necessarily on
the standard ports but some other ones.
Any suggestions or recommendations ?
