Several people talked about alternative solutions for GUIs to iptables.
Is there any of those being incorporated into our favorite distro? :-)


You might try the firewall what has been developed by Michael in our adsl4linux group, ( i am one of the founders and still moderator), it is really handy and nice. Go a bit through the dutch part, but that is not so difficult in this case. -> http://www.adsl4linux.nl if necessarry I will put it on my ftp gershwin, let me know.




Thanks for the tip. I'm looking at your site now, inspite of the fact I
don't speak dutch. :-(

But that's not I was talking about. What I asked if it will be some kind
of replacement in fedora 2 for that crappy redhat-config-securitylevel.
Iptables can do too much to be limited for such a tool.



You need to remove the lines for automatic module loading and external automatic module loading, that is all there is. Yes, it is a good replacement, and a very good upgrade for what somebody made in the far east. Just try as follows (I did it so):
mkdir rc5.d/orig
mv iptables orig
/etc/init.d/firewall.iptables
ln -s ../iinit.d/firewall.iptable S960firewall.iprables // formally in front of xinetd, you should be paranoya ;-)
in /etc -> /etc/firewall.iptables.conf and do not forget to edit that @!#@$
same for rc3.d of course, perhaps I made a typo, but I am not totally ready with Fedora and thus on Micro-soft, so I cannot no check it.


Alexander the Great died on the age of 33 by jumping in a cold bath in Susan, don't do that ever pls. ;-)
