Hello All,
I am linux administrator and use iptables for firewall. I use
shorewall, which you
need to be setting up only policy based on your box is having one
interface or
two interfaces or three. Policy, zone, interfaces, rules these are all
I need to edit.
Is there any such tool for PF. I am not looking at GUI for generating
rules.
Hello Sam,
fwbuilder is a GUI which "vomits" pf rules if you wish (and also
iptables and some other kind of firewalls).
It's easy to use, but the result is not ever ecactly what you want
(therefore i used "vomit").
Its' nice to see what it produces with iptables and then what it
produces with pf (at this point it can help you to see the differences
between iptables rules and pf rules), but mostly it is better to edit
pf.conf directly. So you know exactly what your firewall rulez does.
And btw: pf rules are much more readable then a set of iptable commands.
So give it a try.
thanks,
Sam
