Post #155,920 by folkert 5/19/04 12:42:58 PM Reply	USE FWBUILDER!!!!! [link\|http://www.fwbuilder.org\|http://www.fwbuilder.org] It is what I use for my FW administration and port redirection. Things are vera nice. I'll bet that your outgoing spoofing protection is denying the packets to get through. Since the ping of .4.1 of X cannot get back to 0.1 it seems logical. I could send you a stripped version of my .xml file for fwbuilder... So you understand fwbuilder's operation. It is tough sometimes. One last thing you are going to want to update the IPTABLES to at least v1.2.8a. Anything before it has some serious rule parsing issues. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Give a man a match, he'll be warm for a minute.

Dennis has found a product called smooth wall that is supposed to be a Linux firewall builder similiar to FWBUILDER. I'd advice/recommendations for you (and the rest of the "gang" here) prior to that of a Novell administrator. I'll be updating the OS from RH7.2 to RH9.x, then loading FWBuilder. If you're willing to send me that stripped down .xml file, I'd appreciate it. jbrabeck at email dot usps dot gov. Thanks, Joe edit fix my email addy!
