The present firewall configuration is intended for hosts that are on the "front line", not behind a separate firewall with a local address. As such, all local addresses are dropped as an anti-spoofing measure. If you're running the toaster on a private IP address, you'll need to modify the firewall.sh script. I added the following rule near the top of the script: ## Drop all incoming fragments iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -f -j DROP # # shubes 5/16/06 - accept packets from local net iptables -A INPUT -s my.internal.network.id/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT # ## Drop outside packets with local addresses - anti-spoofing measure It'd be nice if someone would create a flyspray task (or at least a wiki FAQ) on this. -- -Eric 'shubes' --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
