Okay... here's what I want to do...
(this looks better with a fixed-width font)
+-----------+
+----------+ +----------+ +--------+ | protected |
| Internet | <-> | Firewall | <-> | switch | <-> | systems |
+----------+ +----------+ +--------+ +-----------+
I want a linux-based firewall to answer to my public address space, and
to then to route the packets through my switch to my protected systems
(and vice-versa <smile>). I'm sure this can be done, but I have no idea
how to do it.
How do I do this with ipchains/iptables? Some examples would be nice
<smile>.
Thanks.
Jeff
