Hi,
I want my 1.1.5.1 box to work like a screening router as well as a
firewall host which also uses sockd (for some private requirements). I
wonder what will be the best tools to use for screening packets from
different sources :
1) screend
2) tcp_wrapper
3) ip_filt
Preferably, I want something that can be installed without modifications
to the kernel sources. But if patches are readily available, I DO NOT mind.
No, I don't have the luxury to buy anothe router and make it sit in front
of my FreeBSD boxes, so I can only turn FreeBSD box into a screenign router
instead.
I am ready to use/set up my 2.0.5 boxes with the built-in ipfw or with any
other tools above (also for some private reasons, don't ask).
Can someone with such experience please post/advice/suggest/point me to
the right track ?
Many thanks in advance.
