how did you set up your firewall? Does your firewall have a cdrom that you
customized during linux install what process did you go through...I am about
to do the same. Do you have a webserver running? I have purchased an ip
address and domain, does the firewall actually take that IP address and
traffic on port 80 is auto forwarded to my webserver, or does the
gateway/firewall have a different IP address than the IP address that I
bought, which would then set up on the web server. I am new and not clear on
this. What do you know about the linux firewall that you can boot from
floppies anyone ever done that?
Thanks
