Hi everyone, this is my first post on the group. I sent a mail to the netFilter webmaster and he encouraged me to post it here, so...here we go! I've written a little article about iptables, IMHO simple and easy to understand. It was originally written in spanish, it had quite nice feedback, so I decided to translate it to english, and publish it on its own website. It's name: Learning iptables from scratch the url: http://www.iptableslinux.com (spanish version coming soon!) Hope you like it and find it useful. Of course, any suggestions, corrections, and all kind of constructive feedback will be appreciated. :) Regards, Jose R.
