Re: Firewall help

[Paul Frieden <pfrieden@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would also recommend looking at my project PacketFlow Firewall 
Generator.  You can download it from 
http://packetflowfw.sourceforge.net.  It generates rules from a simple 
XML configuration format.  It includes several examples, including 
single and multi DMZ configs.  It should be simple to modify one of 
these to your purposes.  It doesn't currently generate NAT rules, but 
I've found that they are fairly easy to make by hand.

PacketFlow is written in Python and uses libxml2.  Both of these should 
be included in RH8, so it shouldn't be any trouble.  If you have any 
questions, you can post them on the site and I'll help if I can.
