Hi. In fact, this is not really a security related question... Harold ! schrieb am Thu, 3 May 2001 um 02:36:
Has anyone setup Connection sharing with kernel 2.4.2-4suse ?? [...]
Yes.
1. Is the neccessary utils bundled with SuSE 7.1 Pro (updated)?
Yes.
2. Does the SuSEFirewall utility set this up?
No.
3. If not Where can I find Idiot instructions?
/usr/share/doc/howto/en/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO.gz You find a masquerading script in the attachment (as it's less than 1 k, I include it in the list). Just edit the "WORLD_DEV" variable at the top of the script to fit your needs ([i]ppp0 or the like should be right for you). Plz note that this does not do ANYTHING but set up the masquerading - no firewalling, nothing. Works for both kernels 2.2.x and 2.4.x. No security checks (for valid programs), hard coded program paths... You might still find it.
