I''m having a bit of trouble getting shorewall to run with a bridged configuration. I''ve read through the tutorial on the site, but it doesn''t seem to work quite right for me. I have a slightly different configuration from the example. In the example we are bridging the lan to the dmz. In my situation, i''m bridging my lan and a tap device. I''ll try to draw out what i have here: Lan (eth1)--- (FW) == --- Net (eth0) |----- vpnlink (tap1) the vpn link goes to another house over the internet connection. eth0 is what my cable modem is connected to. as it stands, "loc" is mapped to br0 which, is bridging eth1 and tap1. How should i go about properly setting up the configuration files for this setup so that i can control traffic that goes through the vpn?
Sorry, i''m running shorewall 2.0.1, and have met all the requirements for installing that. Dave Barnum wrote:> I''m having a bit of trouble getting shorewall to run with a bridged > configuration.

"It doesn''t seem to work quite right" doesn''t tell us anything. For example, does the bridge work if you "shorewall clear"? If so, when you "shorewall start" then what doesn''t work and how does it fail? What messages are you seeing? "It doesn''t work" gets you sympathy here but nothing else... -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net
