Hi Guys, I am trying to set iptables up, but am getting into a right mess editing the rules direct in the init script. What are peoples recommendations of a front end, either one that I can run via an Apache VirtualHost, obviously on a secured and locked down VirtualHost so that only I can access it, or via SSH. --Paul
If you're not comfortable just using SSH to push across rulesets created using Guarddog (my choice), then you "might" consider using (the non-Debian) Webmin/Usermin/Virtualmin:-
http://www.webmin.com/firewall.html http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.550_all.debIf you do, consider installing Webmin just after the basic build, before your server package selections as it pulls in a few non-debian, but debianized, packages.
