Hey how is everybody doing? Let see if you can spot me here with my problem. I use to work with Bering 1.2 for VLAN issues but now I want to configure an old machine as a firewall using the software shorewall which is include in Berig 1.2.
I have downloaded the quick start guide for a simple configuration, a local net conected to the firewall (eth1) by a hub (local PCs and the firewall by eth1 are conected to the same hub) and the firewall conected to the router (eth0) of course eth1 has thh net IP address of the local net and eh0 has the same net IP address of the router. Also I have configurated all the machines within the local net with their gateway set with the IP address of the local interfce of the firewall (eth1) as it is said in the quickstart guide of shorewall for two interfaces. I have the following policies: local net ACCEPT net all DROP all all REJCET The in the rules I have some rules like local fw tcp 53 local net tcp 4662 local net udp 4662 net local udp 4662 local fw tcp 80 fw net tcp 80 local net tcp 25 (SMTP) net local tcp 110 (POP) .... .... and two or three more, I don´t know if the rules are like that exactly now. The problem is that, from any computer of the local net I can ping the private interface of the router (which is conected to the fw) and from the firewall I can ping either the router or any local PC. But when I try to open my web broser in any of my local PCs it doesn´t work. So here is my question, with Bering 1.2 and it´s shorewall, do I have to start the firewall with any command? or does it get set up automaticly by it self after the sistem is booted? if so, how can I get it started? Did I do anything wrong in my configuration of the firewall or in the desing of the net? Thanks for yor time falks ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!
