I have the following network settings for my main PC with a Jetstart
ADSL modem/router.

Hostname = Grunter
Address = 192.168.1.11
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.1
Primary DNS = 202.27.184.3
Secondary DNS = 202.27.184.5
Network = 192.168.1.0
Broadcast = 192.168.1.255

I have used Lokkit to set medium security firewall and added the
following 2 lines to the ipchains file and samba now seems to work.

-A input -s 192.198.1.0/8 -d 192.168.1.0/8 -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
-A input -s 192.198.1.0/8 -d 255.255.255.0/8 -i eth0 -j ACCEPT

I have 2 questions...

1/      Is medium the correct level of Firewall for me?
2/      Are there any amendments/suggestions to what I have done?

Thanks, Robert
