All 3 FreeBSD 6.1 firewall software products IPF, IPFW, PF and their NAT components all work without having to be compiled into the kernel.
To get NAT functionality from IPFW you need to add 'option divert' to your kernel configuration file and recompile. fbsd was half right, it's all in the handbook ;)... "There are some additional configuration statements that need to be enabled to activate the NAT function of IPFW. The kernel source needs 'option divert' statement added to the other IPFIREWALL statements compiled into a custom kernel." http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-ipfw.html Read the handbook closer for details on how to activate which ever
one you want to use. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 9:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: FreeBSD firewall, nat, kernel Hi, I've just installed a FBSD 6.1 box and I want to install Firewall and NAT services. The handbook Firewall chapter indicates to compile Firewall if you want NAT. But, I could not find in the GENERIC file the IPFIREWALL options. Do you have an idea ?
