Also, can I use both portfw and mfw in a configuration, for > instance mfw with the web servers and portfw with the ftp server? Think of port-forwarding as in-between the input and output chains. You must still permit the flow of the packets required to receive and forward. As for the last question of combining portfw and mfw, I'm assuming they're both permitted as they're two different modules, but I don't really know. Mike -- Michael P.
