*C*                     ** Updated the IPCHAINS ruleset to 
                           fix a critical ordering mistake.

                        ** ALL TrinityOS IPCHAINS users 
                        ** should at least FIX your rulesets

                        Here is the notes from the firewall 
                        comments:

                        # *CRITICAL* The ordering of the 
                        # ACCEPT of the HIGH PORTS in the 
                        # output ruleset are WRONG!!  
                        #
                        # Moved them to be AFTER all the 
                        # various REJECT lines but before 
                        # the final output reject.
                        #
                        # Several comment additions
                        #
                        # Changed the DGW variable to EXTGW, 
                        # added the XWINDOWS_PORTS variable.
                        #
                        # Put a copy of the actual firewall

                        [Section 10]

N                       Added a pointer for users to see 
                        Section 46's URLs in section 5
                        [Section 42]

N                       Moved all TrinityOS updatess 
                        8/27/99 to 5/23/99 to the 
                        TrinityOS-old-updates page.
                        [Section 100]

------------------

N       9/22/99 Changed the name of Section 6 to
                        "Advanced System Logging and some 
                        Cool Tips"
                        [Section 2]

N                       Added the URL to the BASH HOWTO
                        [Section 5]

N                       Changed the name of the section to 
                        "Advanced System Logging and some 
                        Cool Tips"
                        [Section 6]

N                       Updated the Distributions section 
                        a little and added URLs and more
                        pointers to other distros.
                        [Section 6]

N                       Added a little blurb on creating 
                        more readible BASH prompts (coloring
                        it).
                        [Section 9]

------------------

G       9/20/99 Updated the IPCHAINS ruleset to 3.13 
                        to support a commented FORWARD rule 
                        for Diald users.
                        [Section 10]

I                       I have officially announced that the 
                        IPFWADM rulesets are DEAD.  No worries 
                        though, there are IPCHAINS patches 
                        for 2.0.x kernel users.  With these 
                        patches in place, 2.0.x kernel users 
                        can use IPCHAINS.  As it stands, the 
                        IPCHAINS rulesets in TrinityOS are much 
                        MUCH better     than the IPFWADM ones.
                        [Section 10]

------------------

N       9/16/99 Added a few more search and replace 
                        items to match with the firewall
                        rulesets.
                        [Section 7]

                        Updated some of the IP addresses in 
                        the IPCHAINS rulesets to reflect
                        the Search&Replace section of TrinityOS
                        [Section 10]

------------------

N       9/15/99 Moved the output of the various Sendlog 
                        log files to /etc/info/logs.
                        [section 9]

G                       Added a little section on Scour.net's 
                        SMB crawler
                        [Section 50]

------------------

N       9/14/99 Fixed the IPCHAINS ruleset to use the 
                        $EXTIF variable when doing the dynamic 
                        EXTBROAD variable.  It was hard coded 
                        to ETH1.  

I                       Also added additional filtering for 
                        NetBus Pro, Win Crash, Socket De 
                        Troye, and the Unknown Trojan Horse 
                        (Master's Paradise [CHR]) trojans
                        in the OUTPUT filter of the IPCHAINS 
                        ruleset.

                        Thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for both of these.
                        [Section 10]

------------------

N       9/13/99 Fixed the SSH v1. version from 1.0.27 to 
                        1.2.27.
                        [Section 5]

------------------

G       9/11/99 I've added a whole Anti-SPAM email section.  
                        It talks about how to cryptic email headers, 
                        how to notify innocent spam relayers, and
                        how to report careless SPAM relay sites.
                        [Section 50]

N                       I moved the Security patching section from 
                        Section 50 to 60.

------------------

I       9/8/99  Updated the IPCHAINS ruleset to enable DHCP 
                        on the external internface per default.  This 
                        was the stated default but the configuration 
                        wasn't correct.
                        [Section 10]
