Contents of README:firehol is an easy to use but powerfull iptables stateful firewall for humans. FireHOL uses an extremely simple but powerfull way to define firewall rules which it turns into complete stateful iptables firewalls. FireHOL is a generic firewall generator, meaning that you can design any kind of local or routing stateful packet filtering firewalls with ease. You can run FireHOL with the 'helpme' argument, to get a configuration file for the system run, which you can modify according to your needs. You can find example config files in /usr/doc/firehol-<ver>/examples. This directory contains examples from a simple client machine, to a lan-wan gateway or an office server. The default config file in the package contains only a note about where to find config file examples (/usr/doc/firehol-<ver>/examples), because it is empty it is not handled as a usual config file. If a user has a real one, this "example" is simply deleted. There is a get-iana.sh script to fetch reserved IPs from iana, It is renamed to firehol-get-iana, and placed to /usr/sbin. You have to run it at least once, to silence firehol startup warnings about missing files. There is an adblock.sh script to fetch the IPs of popular add servers, which can be blacklisted, see the file for the details. It is renamed to firehol-adblock and it is in /usr/sbin. In addition to the man pages there is a full html documentation in /usr/doc/firehol-<ver>/html --- For example this is a sample firewall for simple home machine with samba and ssh: >version 5 > >interface any world > policy reject > > server dns accept > server dhcp accept > server icmp accept > server ssh accept > server samba accept > > client all accept --- This is a stripped down home server and router configuration (for a sophisticated version of this file see /usr/doc/firehol) >version 5 > >interface eth0 home > server "dns ftp samba squid dhcp http ssh icmp" accept > client "samba icmp" accept > >interface ppp+ internet > server "smtp http ftp" accept > client allaccept > >router home2internet inface eth0 outface ppp+ > route all accept |
