Hello,

I changed the $INTIF to $EXTIF and now the server is visible to me from the
inside of the network. You are correct in your assumption that I would like
this server to be accessible from the Internet through the External
interface, unfortunately I still cannot see it from outside the network.

I have placed the rule in the Optional section before the "Catch all rule,
all other incoming is denied and logged." I assume this is what you are
referring to as the final input DROP rule.

I have not yet tried your second suggestion, but I will give that a shot
next and see how that works.

I am also looking forward to a solution to Loren's question about SSH
through MASQ gateway. SSH works fine for me with the simple firewall
ruleset, but not when I load the stronger ruleset.

One last thing, I currently load the firewall with a line at the end of the
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file. When I try to load it the preferred way, by copying
the appropriate file into the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory and running the
command "chkconfig --level=345 firewall-2.4 on" the firewall load fails and
returns an error message "execvp: Permission Denied". I would like to use
this method to load the firewall, if anybody has any suggestions I'd sure
appreciate hearing them.
