As for iptables, don't run a firwall on a firewall;-) Check out these links: http://www.checkpoint.com/support/downloads/docs/firewall1/ng/fp3/LinuxMinOs Intall-FP3.pdf http://www.checkpoint.com/support/downloads/docs/firewall1/ng/fp2/linux_mini mal_rd72_ng_fp2.pdf
Be fore-warned, the previous versions of these documents missed some rpm's that are detailed in the release notes (e.g. sharutils). I have not looked at these recently. Keep your firewall load as tight as possible, only loading what you need. I have had good luck running other applications, but have not tried things like BW mgmt or traffic control. -Steve S. -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of John Pang Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 5:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [FW-1] CheckPoint & RedHat Linux Hi, I am thinking of running CheckPoint NG or NG SO on a RedHat Linux 7.3 box. I am wondering if it is possible for me to run other Linux based network programs on this box? Like for example Linux traffic control and bandwidth management programs, tcpdump, iptables, etc. Will these be able to interoperate well with the CheckPoint or does the CheckPoint loadable module does something strange to the OS? Also, does anyone who has successfully run CheckPoint on RedHat Linux 7.3 have any advice to give on what to look out for or what not to do when running this combination?
