Daniele Thanks for writing.....
ut I think that you should read the Firewall HOWTO, to understand what a firewall is, or how a firewall works. After this you are able to write your own "rules" (read the ipchains-HOWTO to understand what a rule is).
This is the sort of thing that I get all of the time. I've read all of the howtos and even printed some of them out. Hardly any of it is of any use to anyone. I've even got a very big bookshop down the road which will get hold of a book for me and allow me to read it without paying for it. Nothing doing there either. Finally I've contacted a publisher and asked him if we can publish -- a book that covers the security aspects of linux. The ones that are available are completely useless. I've read most of them so I should know. Perhaps SuSE would like to contribute to a new book on security issues ? I can get advice for free from at least twelve British universities. My reason for writing to the SuSE security list is that I can get a different point of view from the inward looking and conservative opinions that England is full of. Anyway I've finally worked it out :-) Thanks to everyone :-) Richard Sheffield UK
