scapegoat: My rules for dns usage are: ACCEPT loc net tcp domain ACCEPT loc net udp domain ACCEPT fw net udp domain and they work... the clients in my local network use a dns server in the local network. First rules let this dns recurse to find sites and such for web navigation. Second rule is for me, when I?m managing the firewall via ssh. hih, Eduardo Ferreira "Gokcen Ogutcu" <scapegoat@biker.gen.tr> Sent by: shorewall-users-bounces@lists.shorewall.net 19/02/2003 17:12 Please respond to scapegoat@biker.gen.tr To <shorewall-users@lists.shorewall.net> cc Subject [Fwd: Re: [Shorewall-users] dns doesn''t resolve] hello again, i couldn''t find anything relevant with my problem in the quickstart guide. it''s telling that, i should enable port 53 for dns queries, but my problem is diffrent. i''m not trying to connect the firewall to make queries. firewalls itsself doesn''t resolve when shorewall is up. somebody help please, i don''t want to be deprived of such a good program because of a simple problem. thanks, gokcen> Gokcen Ogutcu wrote: >> i''ve installed it from the rpm, i only enabled 10000 for webmin other >> than the default settings that rpm generated. >> > > Then I suggest that you start with > http://www.shorewall.net/shorewall_quickstart_guide.htm. > > -Tom_______________________________________________ Shorewall-users mailing list Shorewall-users@lists.shorewall.net http://lists.shorewall.net/mailman/listinfo/shorewall-users

Name resolution from the firewall is enabled when you install the appropriate sample configuration linked from the Quidkstart Guide that applies to your configuration. If you haven''t done that yet then please do so. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy Shoreline, \ http://www.shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net
