Re: ipfwadm

[Nick <daye149@pacbell.net>]

hey thankx fo  all the replies,
 i tried the following in order

echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -p deny

i get the following error:

ipfwadm: setsockopt failed: Protocol not available.

just so you have some background, i am running debian 2.1 w/ 2.0.38 kernel,
never recompiled since install.
running dhcp service and have my route table setup as follows:
255.255.255.255     *     255.255.255.255      eth1
localnet                    *      255.255.255.0          eth0
192.168.1.0             *     255.255.255.0           eth1
127.0.0.0                 *      255.0.0.0                  lo
default                    adsl     0.0.0.0                    eth0

i have done this before w/ ipchians on a 2.2 kernel, but just want to
remember how to do it w/ 2.0

thankx foe your help
