hi im putting up iptables on a server using the default ruleset that comes when install ipmasq under debian woody.
now im wondering if that ruleset represents a strong firewall or what? i want my internal network masqed, but no targets in the rulesset shows any masq activity? heres the ruleset; [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/maasha# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere LOG all -- 127.0.0.0/8 anywhere LOG level warning DROP all -- 127.0.0.0/8 anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere 255.255.255.255 ACCEPT all -- anywhere homer ACCEPT all -- anywhere 192.168.0.255 LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning DROP all -- anywhere anywhere Chain FORWARD (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning DROP all -- anywhere anywhere Chain OUTPUT (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere 255.255.255.255 ACCEPT all -- homer anywhere ACCEPT all -- 192.168.0.255 anywhere LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning DROP all -- anywhere anywhere any suggestions on how to set up a strong firewall rule set will be appreciated! regards -martin
