Re: RH9, NAT and routing

Trouble with firestarter that it isnt a self contained package. Untidy.

Did the install as a non root user and the install tries to put stuff in /etc.

Difficult to uninstall unless you know where everything gets installed.

Tried ./configure --prefix=/opt/firestarter but files still get put into /etc
when you do make install.

To would be a great product if all of the program gets installed into the
directory specified by --prefix=

Too Microsoftish......
