Hey again. Another firewall question. I have a problem with the firewall setup and DNS servers. I have the following, adapted from an online tool: # forward-only can use regular TCP protocol to forwarders ipfw add allow udp from $IPADDR 53 to $NAMESERVER_1 53 via $EXT_INTERFACE out ipfw add allow udp from $NAMESERVER_1 53 to $IPADDR 53 via $EXT_INTERFACE in ipfw add allow tcp from $IPADDR $UNPRIVPORTS to $NAMESERVER_1 53 \ via $EXT_INTERFACE out ipfw add allow tcp from $NAMESERVER_1 53 to $IPADDR $UNPRIVPORTS \ via $EXT_INTERFACE in established Seems like a lot of work to me, but can anyone see a problem with this? I typically get 3 nameserver IPs from the dhcp server, and I have a set of these commands for each (ie. NAMESERVER_1, NAMESERVER_2, etc.). The problem is that it appears the connection is broken or disallowed somehow. Any ideas how this *should* look?
