RE: [PLUG] Linux 2.2 Firewall


Well, the latest version of LRP is based on the 2.2.16 kernel, and uses
ipchains, and can be extended to work with port-forwarding to a DMZ, as well
as using IPSec for making a VPN. Not Mandrake based, but still - might be
worth looking into. Extremely secure.

I prefer this site, over the official LRP site -
http://lrp.steinkuehler.net. But also see http://c0wz.steinkuehler.net/ and
http://www.linuxrouter.org.
