Hey people,
my Linux box got rooted from a BIND exploit. It's very upsetting and frustrating on numerous levels - but I have a sane solution. I happen to have an older box running FreeBSD 4.0 that's been a simple NFS/SMB file server. It already has 2 NICs installed, so I want to make it a firewall/router.
I really don't know FreeBSD, but can get around ok, and understand general unix pretty well.
This box will need to do the following:
IP filtering
NAT
DHCP
DNS
and misc. portfw for httpd etc.
Obviously my first priority is IPfiltering/NAT. Where can I find some quick and easy docs to set this up. I have used ipchains for a long time and I understand filtering basics, just need syntax really.
