Subject: ANNOUNCE: LinWiz 1.02 - iptables wizards for linux servers and workstations
Date: 26 Apr 2003 16:30:08 GMT
Version 1.02 adds NFS firewalling and control of "Ping" responses to the set
of features available using LinWiz.
LinWiz can be found at .. http://www.lowth.com/LinWiz
LinWiz is a growing set of on-line tools for the automated generation of
linux security configuration files and scripts. The tools aim to avoid the
user's need of any in-depth technical knowledge - and allow novices and
experts to set up firewalls with ease. It performs a similar task to the
"lokkit" utility, but covers more services and has more features and
options.
*** LinWiz://ServerFirewall ***
iptables wizard for Linux servers.
This wizard creates an intermediate-level "iptables" configuration for a
linux server, hosting popular services such as Web, FTP, SSH, Telnet, NFS,
DNS, DHCP, etc. This is suitable for servers with a single network card
that does not act as an IP router (ie: not forwarding IP traffic).
The tool allows you to set up ...
* Blocking of common IP attacks and exploits.
* Definition of which IP services running on your server you are willing
to "export" (allow access to).
* Controlled NFS access (this is more complex than Web servers). The
tool provides all the information you need to set this up.
* Controlled "ping" responses.
* Filtering of the IP addresses and/or MAC addresses that are permitted
(or refused) access to your services.
* Logging of rejected IP packets.
It produces a file that can be read by the "iptables-restore" utility (such
as is used by recent RedHat, Mandrake and other linux distributions) or a
classic "rc.firewall" shell script.
*** LinWiz://PersonalFirewall ***
'Novice' iptables wizard for personal workstations.
This wizard is suitable for creating a simple "iptables" configuration for a
linux workstation, with a single network card, not acting as a router (not
forwarding IP traffic) and not providing any IP services to other hosts. It
allows you to block a number of common IP 'exploits' and sets up your
system in a highly 'locked down' manner - exposing no IP services to other
systems, but not restricting the internet or other IP services (such as
Web, Ftp, Mail etc) that you can use. It produces a file that can be read
by the "iptables-restore" utility (such as is used by recent RedHat,
Mandrake and other linux distributions) or a classic "rc.firewall" shell
script.
