Just seen metioned that smoothie does not support pcmcia, as the laptop will be using a pcmcia NIC this could be a major problem. Has anyone got smoothie installed on a laptop with pcmcia NIC?
TIA Dave Original Message: ----------------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2002 06:38:44 -0500 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] Firewall install - smoothwall HI All, I will be installing a dedicated firewall box running smoothwall in the near future. I just want to check some areas that will need to change. The box on my network connected to the internet via DUP on serial modem uses IP Tables and Masquerading and Bastille to act as a gateway/firewall for the other clients. When I install the Smoothwall firewall (an old Laptop), I will be adding a second NIC to replace the modem, and connect this NIC to the firewall. Inet<--->Firewall<--->MDK8.0 Box<--->Network Hub<--->all other clients Do I still need IPTables/Masquerading? Can I just point all the clients to the firewall IP, or as it will be connected directly to a box, rather than the HUB, will the mdk box still be the gateway? Obviously, I will be removing the bastille firewall as this becomes redundant. Thanks in advance.
