Project Description

Arno's IPTABLES Firewall Script is a secure stateful firewall for both single and multi-homed machines. It supports NAT and SNAT, port forwarding, ADSL ethernet modems with both static and dynamically assigned IPs, MAC address filtering, stealth port scan detection, DMZ support, protection against SYN/ICMP flooding, experimental IPv6 support, multi-interface/aliased-IP support, and extensive user definable logging with rate limiting to prevent log flooding. It has plugin support to add extra features (like SSH Brute Force protection and (Racoon) IPSEC support). It is easy to configure and highly customizable. A filter script that makes your firewall log more readable is also included.

1.8.2

Detection of the iptables module uses wildcards now (iptables.* instead of iptables.o or iptables.o.gz). This fixes problems with the new Linux 2.6 .ko modules. The HIGHER_CONNTRACK variable has been obsoleted in favor of the new CONNTRACK variable. This variable allows you to configure any number of maximum connections to track. fwfilter has been updated to be able to use NAWK (Debian) for real-time logging. Logging of DHCP broadcasts and UDP packet watching/blocking have been fixed. It is strongly recommended to update your configuration file with the (new) one inside this package.
