Patty,
Some of the services you're going to attempt to access from the Internet are
being controlled by a program called inetd which has a couple files that
control access, /etc/hosts.allow + /etc/hosts.deny. Read the man page for
more info on inetd and controlling access to services under it's control.
As for hosting your WWW site behind your firewall, download a program called
ipmasqadm and install it. It will allow you to forward 80/tcp from your
firewall to an internal machine.

Subject: [Masq] Hello, and can you help me?
/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting!

I am so glad I found this mailing list. Maybe now I
can move forward with my problem.
Here's my situation. I am a very new to LINUX and I
have taught myself the little I know. I have managed
however to set up a semi-working firewall.
Here's my setup. I am running RedHat 7.0 Kernel
2.2.16. At installation I used custom and installed
Network Management Workstation, Networked Workstation,
Utilities and Kernel Developement.
I have two public IP addresses. One for my router
(CISCO 675) and another for my Firewall.
Out going traffic seems to be fine. From a workstation
behind the FW I can use mail(pop), real audio, news
services, chat, ping EVERTHING , dns lookups,
traceroutes, ftp.....
However, I have a web site behind the firewall that no
one can see and I can't ftp into my site from the www.
I did a port scan from a UNIX box at work and I could
see that I had no open tcp ports to the world.
My config looks good to me. But that's where I might
need some help. I made the rc.firewall config at:
http://www.linux-firewall-tools.com/linux/firewall/
Which has been a great site for a beginner like me.
I write to you all because it seems I am not getting
inbound tpc traffic to masq or ports are not being
forwarded or whatever.
Anyhow, would anyone be willing to look over my config
and tell me what the problem might be? Perhaps
something I've said already has rung a bell.
In any case thank you for your advice,
Patty
