My gateway machine has three interfaces and uses shorewall to protect them. If you like I could tar up /etc/shorewall and send it to you. I've had to create macros for several services and put them in /usr/share/shorewall, but if you run "shorewall try /etc/shorewall" it'll tell you which you need. I made them by copying others and changing bits. The three interfaces are the external network (a DSL modem), the internal wired network (an Ethernet switch) and a wireless network (an access point). I don't suppose my setup is the acme of elegance or wit, but it seems to work. The rules file is 195 lines long. -- Rgds Peter
