The nice part is, once you have a config file made. You can just copy it from machine to machine with just a little tweak here and there. Use it on your desktop or server. One program to learn.. And it's REALLY easy.. Config file example... version 5 server_althttp_ports="tcp/8080" client_althttp_ports="default" # to avoid dhcp-client from filling logs with its complaints about not being able to contact a DHCP server... server_dhcpclient_ports="udp/67" client_dhcpclient_ports="default" # if you need to blacklist incoming connection from an IP, use the following line blacklist this "24.202.51.30 24.202.51.31" # notice how one is using quotes, but not the other # redirection example - redirect traffic to port 1234 to port 110 #redirect to 110 inface eth0 proto tcp dport 1234 interface eth0 internet # enable all available protection - against DoS, invalid packets, etc protection strong #server "samba icmp ftp ssh smtp dns http https pop3 althttp rsync webmin netbios_ns" accept #Allow from these ip ranges only group with src "65.16.101.97/27 192.168.1.1/24" server ssh accept server webmin accept group end # client "icmp ftp ssh smtp dns http https pop3 althttp rsync webmin dhcpclient" accept client all accept -- Highest Regards, Rodney Richison RCR Computing http://www.rcrnet.net 118 N.
