Hello,
I was wondering if any knows where I can find some info on setting
up a firewall with ipfw and allowing all the boxes behind the gateway/firewall
access to the net. I thought this would do it:
# Allow all from the inside.
${fwcmd} add pass all from any to any via ${iif}
${fwcmd} add pass all from any to any out via ${oif}
but it dosen't quite work. I still can't check out the web from behind
the firewall. I'm using the "simple" ipfw firewall with the only modifications
above. I was unable to ping the gateway/firewall from the client till I added
those rules. Should I setup a proxy? But how am I gonna use napster? ;-)
Or am I just plain confused on how this all works? Is there an easier way,
then setting up a complicated ipfw rule set?
Thanks for any input,
Eric Brueggmann
