So long as you trust the clients in your local network that is fine If you want to open up specific ports you do that in the /etc/shorewall/rules file You can test your firewall here http://scan.sygatetech.com/ derek -- -- www.jennings.homelinux.net Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] DNS with bind.
well I fought with named, shorewall, conf files and finally I made internet sharing manually to work! One question: in my policy file of shorewall i edited like this to have samba and internet sharing all together. masqnet ACCEPT loc net ACCEPT fw net ACCEPT fw masqACCEPT masqfw ACCEPT net all DROPinfo all all REJECT info Can someone tell me what holes may I opened with the above. I mean is there a problem with internet intrusion in my network? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ There are 10 types of humans. Those who understand computers, and those who don't.

RE: [newbie] DNS with bind.
well, you have done pretty well. If I were in your boat, I'd get on google and search for gShield download it untar it and put the files in a directory called 'firewall' in /etc go in there, open the .conf file and say 'YES' to all the relevant questions (like NAT (ICS)) save the file.. and run it.. bingo.. ICS up and running... so tell me, why do you need Bind? rgds Franki -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of manolis Sent: Friday, 13 June 2003 5:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] DNS with bind. Hi! I fought the last week with linux options to setup my network with samba. Now it is working fine. I managed to connect my linuxpc, my winXP & and two vmware machines fine the network is setuped with dhcp. the linux pc has an internet connection that I want to share. It was working fine (the ICS) one week ago, but with my efforts to setup the local connectivity, the other systems cannot use the internet anymore. facts: -I know that I must setup bind correctly. -I don't know how. -I don't want to use Mandrake Control Center (it meshed up all the conf files when I used it the last days). -I don't want to use proxy server -I don't want to drop dhcp and return to static IPs. -In general : I don't want a non working windows network again. - I am pretty newbie in linux. Any help? Or step by step method? Or idiots guide? thanks in advance manolis Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
