Good Luck, Dennis I followed the script recommendation posted a couple of times on this list. ;-( I did say no to most options. I gave that 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.0 range, only opening port 110 (I think) for service. I'm a little unclear as to how its supposed to start. I picked no for startup at boot, but yes for startup upon successfull ppp connection. So, is the startup line supposed to go in /etc/ip-up, or /etc/ip-up.local or in /etc/ppp/ip-up or /etc/ppp/ip-up.local? ;-) Thanks! -- /\ DarkLord \/

RE: [newbie] PMFirewall question...
Ya...that's probably not working correctly. I haven't really played with pmfirewall for a ppp connection. The only thing I could tell ya is to go to www.pmfirewall.com and check out their mailing list. I'd either just subscribe to that mailing list...or just browse through the archive. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ronald J.

Hall Sent: Monday, November 13, 2000 2:19 PM To: Mandrake Newbie Mailing List Subject: [newbie] PMFirewall question... Okay, I'm currently using ipchains/PMFirewall. My question is, since I *think* I've got everything installed correctly (the script said it installed OK), should I not be able to see PMFirewall running, using something like ktop or top, after I've connected to the 'Net? I picked the options where PMF does not start up at boot, but upon a successfull ppp connection. Thanks! -- /\ DarkLord \/
