I loved guarddog, I have read the stack of documentation on iptables and still don't get it, I connect to the net via a speedtouch modem(usb using ppp0), I have looked through the ebuilds, and there seems no easy or obvious replacement for replacing this, currently I have two machines I windows 98se and a gentoo box I connect to the internet with I run two scrips seperately

I use this to set up my connection between the two machines
Code:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0


and I use this which I found somewhere
Code:
FWVER=0.75
#
#               Initial SIMPLE IP Masquerade test for 2.4.x kernels
#               using IPTABLES.
#
#               Once IP Masquerading has been tested, with this simple
#               ruleset, it is highly recommended to use a stronger
#               IPTABLES ruleset either given later in this HOWTO or
#               from another reputable resource.
#
#
#
# Log:
#       0.75 - Added more kernel modules to the comments section
#       0.74 - the ruleset now uses modprobe vs. insmod
#       0.73 - REJECT is not a legal policy yet; back to DROP
#       0.72 - Changed the default block behavior to REJECT not DROP
#       0.71 - Added clarification that PPPoE users need to use
#              "ppp0" instead of "eth0" for their external interface
#       0.70 - Added commented option for IRC nat module
#            - Added additional use of environment variables
#            - Added additional formatting
#       0.63 - Added support for the IRC IPTABLES module
#       0.62 - Fixed a typo on the MASQ enable line that used eth0
#              instead of $EXTIF
#       0.61 - Changed the firewall to use variables for the internal
#              and external interfaces.
#       0.60 - 0.50 had a mistake where the ruleset had a rule to DROP
#              all forwarded packets but it didn't have a rule to ACCEPT
#              any packets to be forwarded either
#            - Load the ip_nat_ftp and ip_conntrack_ftp modules by default
#       0.50 - Initial draft
#

echo -e "\n\nLoading simple rc.firewall version $FWVER..\n"


# The location of the iptables and kernel module programs
#
#   If your Linux distribution came with a copy of iptables,
#   most likely all the programs will be located in /sbin.  If
#   you manually compiled iptables, the default location will
#   be in /usr/local/sbin
#
# ** Please use the "whereis iptables" command to figure out
# ** where your copy is and change the path below to reflect
# ** your setup
#
IPTABLES=/sbin/iptables
#IPTABLES=/usr/local/sbin/iptables
DEPMOD=/sbin/depmod
MODPROBE=/sbin/modprobe


#Setting the EXTERNAL and INTERNAL interfaces for the network
#
#  Each IP Masquerade network needs to have at least one
#  external and one internal network.  The external network
#  is where the natting will occur and the internal network
#  should preferably be addressed with a RFC1918 private address
#  scheme.
#
#  For this example, "eth0" is external and "eth1" is internal"
#
#
#  NOTE:  If this doesnt EXACTLY fit your configuration, you must
#         change the EXTIF or INTIF variables above. For example:
#
#            If you are a PPPoE or analog modem user:
#
#               EXTIF="ppp0"
#
#
EXTIF="ppp0"
INTIF="eth0"
echo "   External Interface:  $EXTIF"
echo "   Internal Interface:  $INTIF"

# --------------------------------------------------------------------
#
#    ip_nat_snmp_basic - this module allows for proper NATing of some
#                        SNMP traffic
#
#    iptable_mangle    - this target allows for packets to be
#                        manipulated for things like the TCPMSS
#                        option, etc.
#
# --
#
#    ipt_mark       - this target marks a given packet for future action.
#                     This automatically loads the ipt_MARK module
#
#    ipt_tcpmss     - this target allows to manipulate the TCP MSS
#                     option for braindead remote firewalls.
#                     This automatically loads the ipt_TCPMSS module
#
#    ipt_limit      - this target allows for packets to be limited to
#                     to many hits per sec/min/hr
#
#    ipt_multiport  - this match allows for targets within a range
#                     of port numbers vs. listing each port individually
#
#    ipt_state      - this match allows to catch packets with various
#                     IP and TCP flags set/unset
#
#    ipt_unclean    - this match allows to catch packets that have invalid
#                     IP/TCP flags set
#
#    iptable_filter - this module allows for packets to be DROPped,
#                     REJECTed, or LOGged.  This module automatically
#                     loads the following modules:
#
#                     ipt_LOG - this target allows for packets to be
#                               logged
#
#                     ipt_REJECT - this target DROPs the packet and returns
#                                  a configurable ICMP packet back to the
#                                  sender.

I appologise for the big post, but I wanted to show how I run two scripts to get my linux machine to act as a router(I think thats right) for my windows box. But cannot protect myself as well(there seems thousand of choices for this)

I have found other scripts that protect my machine although I lose my connection from my windows machine. I have looked at several alternatives, but getting quickly up and running, using iptables(not ipchains) seems impossible, also I suspect the setting up the connection between my machines should be done elsewhere in slackware I used an ncurses tool.

I'm not tied to the scripts above, I just want security, 2 machines(1 windows 1 gentoo) connected, and to do it the right way(running script files manually certainly does not feel right)and I'm struggling.

a few questions:

do you want the windoze box to have access to the internet through the linux box?
do you have a router?
do you have a switch?

yes I want my windows98se box to access my box through linux.
and no I don't have a router/switcher. I have a crossover cable and a usb adsl moden(aka speedtouch).

I just checked an: emerge -pv guarddog
It looks as if it will emerge guarddog and iptables. So obviously guarddog uses iptables.

Did you try that already?

Did you get linux configed as a router with guarddog?

I used to use guarddog but never tried seting up routing with it.

I know it's possible to config iptables as such. Off the top of my head, I can't say how. It'll take a bit of reference digging.

You do have adsl though. Good. I would suggest a routing switch. Most have a firewall. I'd rather spend 30USD, then a day or so.

I tried using guarddog but I've upgraded to kernel 2.6 of which there is only preliminary support for.

No I did not manage so set it up as a router, only set it up for filesharing

I see. So you're not trying to route through the linux box.

It seems quite simple. Or maybe I misunderstand you.

You said your ADSL modem is USB. Is your other computer connected by ethernet?

If so just don't filter packets for eth0 and filter packets for the USB ADSL modem device. I don't know what kind of device that would show as.

I found out about KMyFirewall. http://kmyfirewall.sourceforge.net/

Maybe you'll like that.

description:
KMyFirewall attempts to make it easier to setup IPTables based firewalls on Linux systems.
It will be the right tool if you like to have a so called "Personal Firewall" running on your Linux box, but don't have the time and/or the interest to spend hours in front of the IPTables manual just to setup a Firewall that keeps the "bad" people out.
