Hi Bao: I use Flash Disk and previously Hard Disk. What I do is boot from a DOS floppy, copy everything from root to a separate DOS based directory. If I need specific CONF files, I mount a floppy (from the linux prompt), copy the file to floppy. Then I can use my Windoze machine and Notepad to view the configuration while I set up the latest versions.
At least, those are the things I do but I'm still pretty green. John -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Bao C.

Basically, I have the shorewall 1.2.5 lrp package from the Bering image. I would like to go to shorewall 1.2.6. Backing up the etc.lrp does not work, as no Shorewall-related info is saved. Thanks.
