Hi all -
I apologize for what is a pretty off-topic post. Although it does involve
RH Linux...
I've just been asked to allow UDP through the (RH Linux) firewall, and
would like opinions on the safety of doing so. A summary of possible
compromises to the NT/Win95 network behind the firewall is what I'm after -
compromises that wouldn't be possible if UDP was blocked. I've cruised the
Firewalls list archives, but the search is disabled, and there's a lot of
reading to do.
I'd also appreciate a pointer to info on how to secure the firewall if I do
indeed have to pass UDP (port blocking and the like).
Again, I apologize for the OT post - I'm not on the Firewall list, and
subscribing just to ask a newbie question would likely irritate them as
badly as this might irritate you.
thanks
Doug Roberts
