Ernest,

        I have attached two shell scripts that make use of ipchains.
Mandrake 7.2 I do believe has ipchains on as default "not sure". Just run
the scripts like so "./fire-wall"

1. Script "fire-wall" will block all icmp's and block all ports except the
following by default.

ftp-data (20) and ftp (21)
ssh (22)
telnet (23)
smtp (25)
DNS (53)
http (80)
POP-3 (110)
identd (113)
nntp (119)
https (443)
ICQ Services (it's a server service) (4000)

It will also open up high ports as you need them!

"NOTE: anybody that dose a portscan will return all 65,000 ports as open and
filtered :) "

2. Script "flush" will flush your ipchains back to nothing.

Please Edit the files to suite your needs!

Also another firewall that works great called netmax http://www.netmax.com

hope this helps!
