Hi All,

Seems the Netgear FVS338 firewall 
(http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/fvs338.asp) is actually Linux under the 
hood (specifically a customised 2.4.18 kernel):
ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/GPL/fvs338_v1_6_29_src_tar.bz2  (22.4MB)

Having recently purchased one of these little units, it made me happy.

Now it's got me thinking - why couldn't I run up my own 2.4 kernel so I can 
reuse my tried and true iptables scripts.  The VPN functions don't interest 
me particularly.  However, my iptables scripts do some pretty funky NAT stuff 
and port redirection which doesn't seem to be supported on Netgear's 
firmware.  Anyone got any pointers on where a budding hardware h4x0r should 
start??

Cheers,

James
