Hi,
I'm installing debian, and downloaded the package iptables. you say it
has a standard config? well, when I do iptables -L, I get the following:
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_tables
iptables v1.2.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who?
(do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
I did the net-install of debian woody 3.0,I thought...
Can anyone help?

hi
im putting up iptables on a server using the default ruleset that comes when
install ipmasq under debian woody.
now im wondering if that ruleset represents a strong firewall or what?
i want my internal network masqed, but no targets in the rulesset shows any
masq activity?
heres the ruleset;
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/maasha# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere
LOG all -- 127.0.0.0/8 anywhere LOG level warning

ACCEPT all -- anywhere 192.168.0.255
LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning
DROP all -- anywhere anywhere
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination
LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning
DROP all -- anywhere anywhere
Chain OUTPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination

ACCEPT all -- anywhere 255.255.255.255
ACCEPT all -- homer anywhere
ACCEPT all -- 192.168.0.255 anywhere
LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning
DROP all -- anywhere anywhere
any suggestions on how to set up a strong firewall rule set will be appreciated!
