Hi. Sorry to bother you all with this question, but I am quite new to Mdk-SNF :-). I have used Linux for several years and know my way around the OS quite well. I am about to install a new firewall - which I normally do just using a hand-edited config-file for iptables/ipchains - but then I discovered that Mandrake actually have a separate distro that is intended to be used as a firewall. I thought I have a look at it - but I was disappointed that the current distro (SNF 7.2) is based on a 2.2.x kernel (I would like to use iptables instead of ipchains). Then I started browsing through the cooker-firewall mailing list archive, and saw that several of you people is referring to SNF-8.2... downloaded from cooker?!? ...as far as I know, cooker is the place to go, if you want the bleeding edge of new packages to your current Mandrake installation... and it is not linked directly to a version number. My questions are therefore as follows:
1. Is there such a thing as an SNF-8.2 (alpha, beta, release candidate)? 2. Is it possible to easily make an SNF-8.2 from a standard Mdk 8.2? 3. If so, what do you need to do in order build an installable CD of it. Any response/input will be appreciated, thanks -Ernst
