Is there any place I can find a good default ruleset for a server, and just change what ports I want open?
Also, I've noticed that some rulesets will have different flags and keep state on for certain TCP ports, but not others. For example, at https://www.section6.net/help/pf.php I found: #WebServer, HTTPS, 8000 pass in on $extif proto tcp from any to any port 80 flags S/SA pass in on $extif proto tcp from any to any port $tcp_services flags S/SA synproxy state tcp_services is {22, 443} I don't understand why they use synproxy state for 22 and 443, but not 80 On Mon, 14 Feb 2005 23:44:32 -0500, chip <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > quickly see what's up.
