This does seem to be the consensus here. However, as I have never used this tool it is a bit intimidating. And the documentation is so vast it may be a bit of an overkill for my very simple purposes. You see, I have only one NIC which is connected to a Linksys router, which in turn is connected to the modem. My modem does its own firewalling, but I cannot bring myself to rely entirely on it, and always set up my own as well. But, because I have only one NIC I can never quite figure out what to do with loc in the zones, which in the documentation and such is always eth1, which I don't have. Should I not have a loc zone? Or do I just have eth0 for both net and loc? Patrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
