centos as a firewall help

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello all,

first of all i'd like to wish you all happy holidays, and a merry belated christmas.

Secondly, i'm trying to setup  a centos 5.4 to act as:

1. firewall # can you check my config below and tell me if i missed anything?
2. DHCP # already configured
3. transparent squid proxy #  already configured
4. http (virtual hosts) # in the near future
5. squirrelmail # in the near future

- Relevant info:

Two NICs:

eth0 LAN: with dhcp service: 192.168.57.1(255.255.255.0) # my lan users are connected to this interface
eth1 WAN: static: 172.16.2.14 gw/172.16.2.13 (255.255.255.248) # My isp is connected to this interface

I want my firewall to do the following:

1. get my box to be completely secure from outside access, in other words deny all access from the outside world to my box &/or my LAN
2. allow my LAN users to access the internet/ box without any restrictions, through a transparent squid installation 

i've searched a bit online, i must admit i never used iptables before (i thought of using firestarter as it's graphical and am no iptables guru, not even a novice user though i've installed my box with no X  hence no graphical applications)

i finally used bits an pieces and came up with the following:
