Yeah, Chuck it does. Log in as root, open a terminal, and type the following
exactly (Without the quotes).
"ipchains -P forward DENY"
That oughtta do! Remember, each time you start your PC, you'll have to do
it, until someone sends you the instructions on how to automate it. Since I
usually run it on Servers, and I almost never have to shut them down, I
don't have to do it often. That's why I never learned how to automate it on
startup. If you ever add a second PC, you'll need to add a line or 2, and
ipchains will provide connection services for the second PC. Enjoy.
