Is there a combination of the Linux Kernel and IPFW that actually works
correctly.
I have not been able to get it to work correctly with Kernel 1.2.13 or 1.3.57
I need the following blocking rules.
What I want to do is set the default policy to deny.
I then want allow my system to connect anywhere
I then want to allow all incoming mail.
I also wnat to allow a particular site on the internet to connect to me.
How do I do this.
I have tried but I cannot get it to work. As soon as I make the default
policy deny it will not allow connections NO Matter what the other rules
say.
Thanks in anticipation
