I'm not exactly sure myself about the system IPfilter is available for. That's why I hoped someone more competent would contact you. This did not happen, I gather, so I'll do my best. I'm copying the mailing list in the hope someone will correct my blunders. While INSTALL.Linux says "Linux is no longer supported.", it is from 2000. The FAQ http://www.phildev.net/ipf/IPFlinux.html#linux1 says "IPF 4.x runs on Linux." The Linux subdir in the distribution supports that. I haven't tried myself, though. OpenBSD is supported even though the project replaced IPFilter with pf. See e.g. OpenBSD-3/README.3_5. So this brings the platform list for the IPfilter tarball to FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and Tru64 QNX and Darwin, I don't know about. http://www.qnxzone.com/ does not respond. The mailing list does not yield much about Darwin, see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ipfilter&m=98686230906724&w=2 HTH, Lupe Christoph -- | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.lupe-christoph.de/ | | "... putting a mail server on the Internet without filtering is like | | covering yourself with barbecue sauce and breaking into the Charity | | Home for Badgers with Rabies.
