As I mentioned in the last email, here's a mini-how to for adding support for an alternative firewall. Kristian wants this tested more before it will be included in the next release.
You'll need two files from SVN in this location. The files are slightly modified to support Astlinux. Taking them from Arno's website will not work. http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/astlinux/tags/0.4.3/package/arno-fw/ arno-iptables-firewall and arno-iptables-firewall.conf You can download the files to your desktop then scp them to your Astlinux box. Mount your system rw (mount -o,remount rw / ) then scp them to your astlinux box. Put the script in /usr/sbin Put the conf file in /mnt/kd Mount your system ro (mount -o,remount ro / ) Next edit the arno-iptables-firewall.conf file. Make sure you understand which interface is your externally facing ethX and which one is internal. Finally, edit rc.conf (which is now a symbolic link pointing to /mnt/kd/rc.conf if one exists there) You'll need to change the FWVERS from astfw to arno. It's commented in there so read. If you are upgrading from an older version, you may need to copy the rc.conf from /stat/etc/rc.conf to ensure you get all the new variables. After you are done editing, you should reboot.
