well so,

1. I've heard some time ago the linux.* hierarchy is dead.

2. debian is NOT a linux distribution - it's packaging system

so, if at all, comp.os.debian or comp.unix.debian would be much better.

I am planning to make gateway with debian mailing lists gatewayed for my
personal tests, on my machine or our firm news server, but it will take some
time. Then, probably...

well but this one is (according to the source) called only on 2.0 and 2.1
kernels.


I have kernel 2.2 and no ipchains rule in kernel set up

btw shouldn't ipchains stay BEFORE ipfwadm ? (afaik ipchains is newer then
ipfwadm)


spoofprotect () {
echo -n "Setting up IP spoofing protection: "
if spoofprotect_rp_filter; then
echo "rp_filter."
elif spoofprotect_ipfwadm; then
echo "ipfwadm."
elif spoofprotect_ipchains; then
echo "ipchains."
else
echo "FAILED"
fi
}

i runned this command:

up route add -net 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo

into /etc/network/interfaces into lo configl;
is that ok, isn't it superflous etc?
