He was wondering if using RH machine as firewall is an option, a good idea. He also wanted to have good logging and stuff. Your solution so far with your "cant be hacked" LBB not only miss the point, but also does not answer the OP's question. Other people are helpful by giving options with experience of what they do on different situations. You are not. Just-put-a-linksys-router-that-can't -be-hack is certainly not helpful. > If the user is here to learn and get to know how to > setup iptables and linux routers then he can take off and do the bullshit > you're spitting out. If he wants a seamless solution that is cheap and > good he goes out and buys a router, No, he wants to know his options with linux firewall. You're not giving any. And yes, users are here to learn. I'm here to learn by reading the posts, not just finding solution. If one don't care about learning, then just go to best buy or compUSa or something and pay the tech guy there to install it at your home. In my case, just by reading this threads I learn what my options are for putting firewall. I probably even do the "bullshit" of setting up linux firewall. <snip> > trying to out do the other, but get useful info and any simple reading of > this thread will find that the only one off base is the one trying throw > out insults. By reading this thread I know that your info of a cant-be-hacked LBB is not useful at all. RDB -- Reuben D.
