This is Ipmasq packaged for FloppyFW by Jonas Smedegaard on Sat, 13 Apr 2002 19:42:37 +0200. Originally packaged for Debian by Brian Bassett brian@butterfly.ml.org on Tue, 18 Nov 1997 22:51:25 -0800. Usage: ------ 1) Put the .bz2 (either normal or stripped-down "tiny" version) and .ini in packages directory on your FloppyFW. 2) Remove or empty "firewall.ini" in the root of your FloppyFW. That's it! Now you have a fully functional, basic firewall script. If you add more interfaces it automatically adapts, with the assumption that the interface(s) with default route are outside interfaces. Edit and add the files A80firewall.rul and/or A80pfw.rul for stronger firewall rules and/or portforwards to internal servers. To tweak the rules even further, add other .rul files to the packages directory. Limitations: ------------ Requires FloppyFW 1.9.20 or higher due to busybox applets not included (or available) in earlier versions. Changes from the original: -------------------------- Only files in /usr/sbin and /etc/ipmasq/rules are included to save space. /usr/sbin/ipmasq-kmod is removed as well. A bug(?) in the busybox "export" command in FloppyFW 1.9.20 causes exporting and defining an environment variable in one go to fail (and instead list some other variables). All calls to "export" is rewritten to fist define the variable and the export it as a separate run. ipmasq-tiny: Strip all comments, and remove non-netfilter (iptables) code to save a few kilobyte. Correct typo in example A80firewall.def (ATCPSVR -> AUDPSVR).
