Yup - After a visit to the IPMasqerade site I selected their stronger firewall and have patched it to look like the following. This works very nicely and has provisions for opening a pinhole to a selected secure host or a pair of selected secure hosts. I added the secure host and the "triple address" for my gateway machine (which is there for historical reasons - easier to do this than reconfigure machines on the active network) in a remarkably little amount of time. The comments in the file helped tremendously. So I have left it this way. Since it adapts to a dynamic IP address I rerun it each time I reconnect using /etc/ppp/ip-up.local. (With the ip_dyanadr.o hack this may not be required. Documentation seems to be "pathetic" in this area.) --8<-- VERY LONG IPTables script. # # rc.firewall-2.4-stronger FWVER=0.75s # An example of a stronger IPTABLES firewall with IP Masquerade # support for 2.4.x kernels. # # Log: # 0.75s - Added SECUREHOST1 and SECUREHOST2 support both via internal # defines and external parameters. # 0.74s - Added INTIP2 and INTIP3 for multi-aliased internal nets # 0.73s - Added comments in the output section that DHCPd is optional # and changed the default settings to disabled # 0.72s - Changed the filter from the INTNET to the INTIP to be # stateful; moved the command VARs to the top and made the # rest of the script to use them # 0.70s - Added a disabled examples for allowing internal DHCP # and external WWW access to the server # 0.63s - Added support for the IRC module # 0.62s - Initial version based upon the basic 2.4.x rc.firewall echo -e "\nLoading STRONGER rc.firewall - version $FWVER..\n" # The location of various iptables and other shell programs # # If your Linux distribution came with a copy of iptables, most # likely it is located in /sbin.

You should also note that the # DHCP server can and will change IP addresses on you. To deal with this, # users should configure their DHCP client to re-run the rc.firewall ruleset # everytime the DHCP lease is renewed. # # NOTE #1: Some DHCP clients like the original "pump" (the newer # versions have been fixed) did NOT have the ability to run # scripts after a lease-renew. Because of this, you need to # replace it with something like "dhcpcd" or "dhclient". # # NOTE #2: The syntax for "dhcpcd" has changed in recent versions. # # Older versions used syntax like: # dhcpcd -c /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall eth0 # # Newer versions execute a file called /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.exe # # NOTE #3: For Pump users, put the following line in /etc/pump.conf: # # script /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall # # PPP users: # ---------- # If you aren't already aware, the /etc/ppp/ip-up script is always run when # a PPP connection comes up.
