FBSD also comes with ipfilter which is much easier to use and sertup. Google the questions archives for loads of info about configuring ipfilter. You will be glade you did. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Mihail Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2003 9:29 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Firewall rules Hello, I'm trying to set up a firewall with ipfw by using the client firewall type given in rc.firewall as an example. My problem is that the client rules don't allow me to do common web-browsing. What should I add to the script to resolve this without seriously compromising security? cheers, Mihail ----------------------------------------- Hot Mobiil - helinad, logod ja piltsõnumid! http://portal.hot.ee _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
