No, you can. Just have a look at the ipchains HOWTO.
You can set the policy of a rule. By setting input policy to DENY, you
can build a "deny all except" firewall.

These rules are setting policy to DENY, so are denying all paquets.

I will assume you filter with the forward rule because you're
masquerading your network. Now your firewall is denying all paquets. The
only thing you have to do is to allow protocols you want to.
For exemple :
ipchains -A forward -s $in_network -p TCP -d 0/0 20 -j MASQ
#ftp-data, useful for active FTP ;)
# Don't forget to load ip_masq_ftp module
ipchains -A forward -s $in_network -p TCP -d 0/0 21 -j MASQ #ftp
ipchains -A forward -s $in_network -p TCP -d 0/0 80 -j MASQ #www
and so on.
All you have to do is to masquerade all ports you want to reach, that's
all.
If you want to masquerade all connections from your network with the
usual :
ipchains -A forward -s $in_network -j MASQ
you will have to filter with the input rule which is much more
complicated as you must specify rules for answers. Moreover, to make
your firewall efficient, you will have to look at source port and ACK
bit.
For FTP, you will have to make thoses rules :
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s $in_network 1204:65535 -d 0/0 21 -y -j
ACCEPT # FTP SYN
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s 0/0 21 -d $gateway 1024:65535 ! -y -j
ACCEPT # reply
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s 0/0 20 -d $gateway 1024:65535 -y -j
ACCEPT # FTP_DATA active SYN
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s $in_network 1024:65535 -d 0/0 20 ! -y -j
ACCEPT # reply
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s $in_network 1024:65535 -d 0/0
1024:65535 -y -j ACCEPT # FTP-DATA passive SYN
ipchains -A input -p TCP -s 0/0 1024:65535 -d $gateway 1024:65535
! -y -j ACCEPT # reply
As you can see, you have to implement 6 rules instead of 2, but it is
more secure, as you can filter services available on your gateway (even
if opening services on gateway is a bad idea).
Notice that FTP server is communicating with the gateway in case of
masquerading and always remember that input chains applies to both
interfaces :)

For the latter question about port forwarding,

and compile in autofw support. (ipmasqadm is

Subject: Re: Problems with Port&Adress-Translation (ipmasqadm)
Date: 19 Aug 1999 18:1:44 GMT
Try this example. I've replaced the
IP numbers with more general ones to
make it less confusing (at least to me).
Network A: 1.0.0.0
Sample FTP client: 1.0.0.1
Network B: 2.0.0.0
IP Masquerading box: 2.0.0.1
FTP server: 2.0.0.2
You want machines on the 1.0.0.0 network
to be able to get to 2.0.0.2, correct?
A little bit of FTP info:
when you FTP from a to b, two connections
are established, one from a to b on
port 21, and another from b to a on
port 20.
2.0.0.1 needs to be told that
2.0.0.1 on port 21 should be transparently
forwarded to 2.0.0.2 on port 21.
On the machine that is 2.0.0.1:
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L eth0 21 -R 2.0.0.2 21
should do the trick (you will need to change eth0
to the ethernet card that gets packets from 1.0.0.1 and
2.0.0.2 to the FTP server)
so that you can
instruct 1.0.0.1 to connect to 2.0.0.1
and it will be transparently connected
to 2.0.0.2

You only need IP forwarding if other machines

Subject: Modem Dialup from Windows via Linux?
Date: 20 Aug 1999 21:03:15 GMT
Hi,
I finally convinced the Big Boss to give a Debian/Samba combo a try as
PDC for our small business network (2xNT4WS, 2xWin3.11). It will also
serve as a dialin server for some of our people to access some of the
shares.
However, since t.B.B. does not agree on a permanent connection to the
Internet, I must find a way to let users on the Win boxes fire up a
modem ppp connection on the Linux machine--kind like DUN.
The only thing I can think of is a script that will automatically initiate
a ssh connection from one of the Win boxes to the Linux machine. Since
I am not familiar with Win scripting, and the output has to be a bit more
verbose, I'd like to know if anybody out here has tried the same?
Any input greatly appreciated.

how about using the Matrix Orbital serial interface LCD module with
the keypad option? this $100 device (which i snagged at LinuxWorld as
soon as i saw it) uses a serial port for display, 5-volt to drive the
display, and includes a 10-pin keypad connector (or you can use the
serial port)... i slapped this baby on my headless server so i can see
who's logged in, the CPU load, uptime, and disk statistics... you can
use this with a little keypad to create a menu-driven selection
routine (the device is easily programmable)...
http://www.matrix-orbital.com
(i bought mine through LinuxCentral)... there are several units:
16x2 LCD
20x2 LCD
20x2 Fluorescent w/keypad support
20x4 LCD
20x4 Fluorescent w/keypad support
40x2 etc.
40x4 etc.
the 20x4 LCD w/wo keypad seems most popular... prices range from
$61.95 to $124.95 (US)...
i don't work for 'em... just wanted another neat Linux toy!
BTW, the units come with a programming manual and a diskette with a
Win9x (ugh!) demo and the LCDproc Linux driver (with source, of
course!)
just a thought!

Can't say for sure, but a quick search for the card on Yahoo turned up
a bunch of hits for this card. One being for www.cnetusa.com, but I am
sure you knew this. I bring this up because there were a few other hits
that mirrored this site or sold their cards. One had a pic and it looked
like a RealTek chipset. Not very reassuring answer, but they don't
actually say whose chipset they use. Without this info, you can't
reliably figure out whether there is a driver for this type of generic
card (by that I mean, not SMC, 3Com, or Intel who use proprietary chips
and have specific drivers). There were a few sites that listed a Linux
driver for this card, but the file was always an .exe file, so who
knows. Email their support department and ask what chipset (like I said,
I am willing to bet it is the RT8139 chipset judging by the cost, but it
could possibly be the DEC Tulip chipset as well) they use. That should
tell you what driver to use. I would bet that it is supported anyway
though, as most NIC's nowadays are. Good luck.

I have a similar problem, though not exactly identical: traffic
through eth0 (connected to the Internet) slows down considerably over
time until the device is stopped and then restarted. In my case, the
types of data transfers involved range from http to X to SMB -- never
any one thing, but the slowdown will eventually occur even if no data
are transferred.

These were taken over the course of about two hours. It looks like
something very specific, but I haven't been able to figure it out.
Any suggestions?

David,
Reading through this thread you mentioned something that has been bugging and
a possible fix for Samba. When I back up my files from off a Linux box to a
Windows CD-RW disk it works great. But when I take that same disk home and then
place it on my Win98 box and then copy those same files via Samba oiver to my
Linux box, usually they are tarred and zipped files, everything is changed to
UPPERCASE.TAR.GZ. Is there any way to turn this feature off? You mentioned
something about "hunt". Could you possibly clarify this a bit more.
Thanks.
KJ

It's trying to do a reverse DNS lookup.
Stick 166.104.88.1 in your /etc/hosts, and put 166.104.88.0 in
/etc/networks.
