I have a transparent bridge/iptables configuration, along with ebtables, and have avoided assigning it an IP address for quite a while now, for security reasons (making it harder for someone to directly connect or send anything harmful directly to the bridge). I'm reconsidering that decision, for three basic reasons - to allow SSH, SendMail (to email the logs to me), and to allow DNAT.
This might not be the best place to ask this question, but are there any important security concerns that I should be aware of (besides SendMail holes)? Perhaps I'm thinking about this wrong. Am I rightly concerned? Thank you, Eric __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
