If: INTINT=<the interface from which packets from the outside come into your local network>, and you want to DMZ 192.168.1.100... Then: # iptables -A FORWARD -o $INTINT -d 192.168.1.100 -j ACCEPT That's all. Just accepting everything destined for the DMZ is good enough to make it the DMZ. Repeat as necessary. -- [ Tobias DiPasquale ] 0x636f6465736c696e67657240676d61696c2e636f6d
