Peter, Have you discussed any of your perceived Shorewall design problems with Tom? Alternately, have you talked with the "rc firewall" team? They plan on creating a IPTables version in the near future. I believe either of these projects would welcome contributions/feedback from you. LEAF Affiliates http://leaf.sourceforge.net/links.php?op=viewlink&cid=3 Of course, you could always create your own IPTables package for LEAF releases/branches. The choice is your's. -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ http://leaf-project.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
