Re: natd with several alias IPs
That`s how i do it with PF!!!
Freebsd
nat on ed0 proto {tcp udp icmp} from 10.10.xx.xx to any - 172.16.xx.xx
# Rule 2 (NAT)
#
#
nat on ed0 proto {tcp udp icmp} from 10.10.xx.xx to any - 172.16.xx.xx
#
# Rule 3 (NAT)
#
#
nat on ed0 proto {tcp udp icmp} from 10.10.xx.xx to any - 172.16.xx.xx
#
# Rule 4 (NAT)
#
#
nat on ed0 proto {tcp udp icmp} from 10.10.xx.xx to any - 172.16.xx.xx
--
Where ed0 is the interface with the alias..
As performace i can say that`s its scalling very well. Because of the nature
of PF and the options you can set(to be more aggressive or not ) i don`t
have problems with overheat.

I wonder, what tricks do you use to use more than

See man natd about the following options for 1-to-1 NAT translation,
which can
be put into /etc/natd.conf and processed automagicly when the machine
boots:
-redirect_address localIP publicIP
That's one trick. Do you use it in production? How many
hosts do you have mapped this way? How do you get
incoming traffic translated to the address it is meant
for, not the last address?

Re: General Guidance Using Snort Inline
I am pretty sure there are modules for PF(so i guess IPFW2 should have also). Try google and the snort mail list On 2/14/06, Drew Tomlinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've installed snort 2.4.3 on a 6.0 machine and have it logging successfully to a MySQL database on another machine in my home network. I also have BASE installed on that machine to view the alerts. Now I'd like to move forward and do things like block an IP address for 1 hour that has generated 5 alerts on the same rule in the past minute. I've Googled and read about snort inline. But what I've read suggests that snort works with ipfilter. I'm running ipfw2 for my firewall on the same box that's running snort. To use snort inline, do I have to covert my entire firewall to ipfilter? Or will snort use ipfilter to do its inline stuff and ipfw2 can continue to work on its own? I'm confused about how this should work and would appreciate any nudges to guides regarding this setup.

Re: Mail back-up system
That`s preatty interesting.. I read the article and the idea is good. But i would like to know what MTA are you using..In the paper you said that at first the email is strored in Mailbox format.
