To just filter packets for my own machine I would have to add ?: Network firewalls IP: forwarding/gatewaying ?? IP: firewalling
Is forwarding/gatewaying required for filtering packets ? Is forwarding/gatewaying required for masquerading ? Can someone be more specific on the definitions for: Network firewalls IP: forwarding/gatewaying IP: firewalling IP: masquerading IP: ipautofw masq support IP: ICMP masquerading IP: transparent proxy support (EXPERIMENTAL) IP: always defragment IP: accounting Thanks, Matthew Listed below is the Kernel Networking section. ---------------------------------------------- Networking Network firewalls Network aliasing TCP/IP networking IP: forwarding/gatewaying IP: multicasting IP: syn cookies IP: rst cookies IP: firewalling IP: firewall packet logging IP: masquerading Protocol-specific masquerading support will be built as modules.
