Use SuSEfirewall2 - it is for iptablse which are native to the 2.4 kernel. Although ipchains are supposed to be supported as well. I would download SuSEfirewall2 and use it if I were you. You can get it from: http://www.suse.com/~marc/SuSE.html Jim 02/27/02 11:04:12 AM, Phil Shrimpton <phil@shrimpton.co.uk> wrote:

Hi,
I have a working BIND configuration, and if I ping "www.slashdot.org" on my windows machine, I get...
Pinging www.slashdot.org [64.28.67.150] ....
Destination Host Unreachable...
So I guess the DNS is working, but the Windows box can't get anything in or out.
you should pick some other site to test with ping.. slashdot has set their firewall to not respond to pings. try www.google.com
Still no joy.
I guess I need to either setup my linux box as a router, use IPChains or SuSEFirewall or a combination of the three.
I have spent the day messing about with SuSEFirewall, but seams to deny all packets from everywhere on everything regardless of what I put in the config file, and it complains about my 2.4 kernel (it would prefer 2.2), so I had to uninstall it.
Anyone got any ideas?
