Hi Taulant, > I just wanted to know if ther's any "firewall" like iptables and > ipchains(linux) on FreeBSD ?? I've just spent an afternoon fscking with ipfw and natd, so: yes, there is. :-) http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls.html Also look up the man pages of ipfw, natd and firewall. As an aside, there's ipfilter. You have to rebuild the kernel for either of them to work, I believe. Don't ask me which one is better. I'll just quote Ozzy... For your interest, I've found the documentation on "ipfw + natd + a default rule of deny" lacking/non-existant, or I haven't been looking in all the right places (I've got money set on the latter ;-). I've got it running now and will probably double check with freebsd-questions@ once I find the time. HTH and good luck... Nico
