(I apologize for the lack of detail in the message; I've really only messed with
ipchains and such as per the VMware manual. I don't know what questions to ask.
I'll provide more detail upon request. Thanks in advance.)
I'm running VMware virtual machines with host-only networking. I want to set up
IP masquerading and forwarding for the virtual machines, but I want to strictly
control what is leaving the machine. (What's entering isn't important for these
applications, but it's fine if I need to restrict that in the same way.)
Here's an example. Win2K box, host-only networking, netmask 255.255.255.0.
I want to allow HTTP, FTP, and Telnet (80, 23, and 21, right?) to leave the
machine, and to invisibly fry the rest. (Though it would be wonderful if I can
switch between invisibly frying and writing to file the packets that leave on
other ports.)
I'm running RedHat Linux 6.1 with kernel 2.2.14 and everything directly in (not
modules) unless it won't let me (like with the masq modules and my sound card).
