Hi, Ralph & the Gang,
As I mentioned in my other post I am running Mandrake 7.2 kernel
2.2.17-21mdk. On two machines an AMD K6-2 300Mhz box, and a 150Mhz pentium
box which I'm trying to make a gateway/router/firewall.
I've gotten several cd's with my copies of Maximum LInux (soon to be
defunct) and most of the goodies on those discs have files that end in
tar.gzip I was wondering how do I untar and/or ungzip those files using the
command line as I need to get some of those files into the 150Mhz gate box
and Xwindows is very slow.
My question about ipchains is how do I set it up on the 150Mhz box so I can
use it as the router/gateway/firewall between Western Illinois University's
(WIU's) LAN and my two desktop boxes? I tried using the scripts posted on
the Techtv superguide to set ipchains up, but sonething wasn't quite kosher,
and I wasn't able to get 'em to work. Without ipchains running I'm not sure
I can get my babylan to working.
