Hello.. I've been wanting to rewrite my firewall for a little bit but
i'm not that familiar with iptables.. Up until now i've had a shorewall
based firewall that also did bridging between my gateway and a VPN
gateway over the internet (to link our houses.) I used the bridge-nf
patch on the 2.4 kernel to be able to manage the bridge traffic and
block certain broadcast packets (like DHCP) I've now upgraded to the
2.6 kernel because i heard it may fix some other issues i was having but
now my bridge (DHCP blocking) rules no longer work... I'd like to get
rid of shorewall and write my own IPTables in the hopes that i could get
my ability to control the bridge back. Can anyone make any suggestions,
or point to a guide that does this with the 2.6 kernel?
Thanks
