Greetings, I've got two NIC's set up in my RH6.1 box, with eth0 set for my external IP address, which is provided by my ISP's DHCP server, and eth1 set up as 10.0.0.1/24. I set my W2kP box up as 10.0.0.2/24 and pointed it to 10.0.0.1 as the gateway. So far this is all doing what it should, I can ping 10.0.0.0 addresses from either box, and internet addresses from the linux box. Next I want to get the linux box to do NAT for the internal network. I'm (attempting) to use linuxconf to configure the firewalling, but I don't understand how to specify the rules I want. I'd like to allow connections out on any protocol, any port, and block all incomming connections except on specific ports or from specific hosts. In the context of linuxconf's menus, could someone briefly explain, or refer me to a document about, how the rules work?
