Using Mandrake MNF which uses shorewall as it''s firewall. My firewall is simple with just two interfaces. One on the internet one on the local network. I can''t browse out to the internet with a browser. Or connect to my external mail server. If I set up the proxy server and set my browser to connect via the proxy I can browse the internet. But still can''t get mail to work. Using TCPDump I can see the traffic going out. But the firewall is not letting it back in. If I set up my workstation directly to the internet connection I can browse and get mail. my shorewall status is attached. If anyone can help I greatly appreciate it. I like the setup of this product and it will go much quicker then building firewalls by hand. Cheers, Scott THERE IS ONLY ONE...

my bad, I didn''t have the subnet mask of the lan zone to be masq''d entered. Just the network. Now seem''s to be working ok. Cheers and great product Tom, from another Washingtonian. Scott THERE IS ONLY ONE... SOCCER.COM, The Center of the Soccer Universe http://www.soccer.com

(/sbin/shorewall show log). if I had to make a wild guess without a full "shorewall status", I suspect that you either haven''t set up SNAT/masquerading or that you have done it wrong. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy Shoreline, \ http://www.shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net

Perhaps your local network doesn''t have the right to access Internet. Take a look at : http://www.shorewall.net/two-interface.htm In /etc/shorewall/policy you must have a line with : loc net ACCEPT And in shorewall.conf you must have NAT_ENABLED="Yes" Le ven 31/01/2003 ? 16:08, Scott Taylor a ?crit :> Using Mandrake MNF which uses shorewall as it''s firewall. > My firewall is simple with just two interfaces.
