[SLE] Success: LRP + NetMeeting
IT WORKS!!! I have a Linux Router Project-based router/firewall and NetMeeting working together and tested. (NetMeeting and a firewall seem contradictory, no?) Full video and audio capabilities. No weirdo configurations, nor ipfwadm rules that don't work, either. I'm sure I didn't do it the best way possible, and others will do better, but here it is: - I compiled ip_masq_h3231.c (from http://members.home.net/ipmasq/patches/ip_masq_h3231.c.tgz) on a Red Hat system (eek!) - I moved the resulting ip_masq_h3231.o file from the Red Hat box to a working LRP, and put it on /lib/modules. - Then edited the modules config file from the LRP menu. - Rebooted the LRP and life is grand. SuperIdiot LRP images with NetMeeting support are available here: http://www.georgetoft.com/LRP (SuperIdiot means they are erady to go and work on 486SX's) These guys are awesome: Rajkumar.

Glad to hear it works!! Now I hope they can code it to work for 2.2 kernels. I don't think my wife would care for me setting up another computer in the office just to route Netmeeting. :-) -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darren R.

What do you currently use for a firewall/router? -- George Toft http://www.georgetoft.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

The machine I am typing on now actually. I know that is not the ideal setup, but I don't have anything sensative on here and I mostly just want to protect my other computer here in my home office. Glad you asked actually as you seem to be one of the security gurus on the list. In a setup like this where I only have two computers (sometimes 3 when I plug in my laptop) on my network and one doubles as my router/gateway, are there any specific concerns to running it this way? I'm not to worried because this is just my learning/hobby computer, but as it is for learning I am trying to set it up as best I can. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darren R.

My (and others) dominating principle is to have as few services as possible running on a firewall. The more you have on it, the more openings you give an attacker. That's why I like LRP - it is slim, yet functional, and it was designed for routing and has good security in its default configuration (because it has very few services). I have a friend who has an LRP firewall between him and the Internet. He has only one computer, but for the price of a couple NICs, he has an awesome firewall (the 486 computer was one I found by a trash can - it's not pretty, but it works).

Go to the web site. Only one image supports ppp, and I have not put NetMeeting support in it. I will, if anyone asks for it. -- George Toft http://www.georgetoft.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
