RE: ipfilter on debian



Hi,

I think iptables and ipfilter are the same thing.  ipfw is the oldest
thing I have heard of, followed by ipchains, followed by ipfilter /
iptables.

If I understand the architecture correctly, ipfilter lives in the kernel
and is managed by iptables.

I think you should use iptables.  ipfilter is way old and ipchains
replaced it, now we use iptables.  Also yuo should use a script/pkg to
acctualy setup the nat.  Read the list arcives for some ideas.
