Yes, there is a way, of course... Just don't use drakgw which is set up for newbies, wizard style. Use the old ipcahins instructions updated for iptables for your basic 3-line gateway and use Bastille-Interactive to refine it. Then you must either add in DNS and DHCP or use static IPs on the local and /etc/hosts on all the machines or NIS to keep track of things. The mini-firewall is very conservative... What you need to make NFS work with it is as follows: (This is an earlier email today) <quote> how do I allow all ports on /etc/Bastille/bastille-firewall.cfg (section TCP_INTERNAL_SERVICES="?")? TIA, Marcio Cordero </quote> TCP_INTERNAL_SERVICES="109 110 111 1024 725 728 1025 628 701 1028 1029" Will work just fine in your firewall setttings--BTW though, you probably also need to set the DNS allowed in the firewall settings to include 192.168.0.1 if ever you expand the local to include more than your laptop or else the local machines will be unable to access each other by name (and their IPs are all on DHCP).
