I'm interested in giving a presentation on this. I'd cover networking/security concepts to set the ground work, show how to use iptables, and describe and configure several different Linux router/firewall distros. I'll be relatively busy for the next month or two, unfortunately, so it'd have to be a few months down the road before I could present anything. So if someone else is ready to give a presentation sooner, go for it! ~M On Sat, 25 May 2002, Alan Dayley wrote: > You know, Dorian points something out that I am not sure what would be the > best way to handle at an install fest. > > At our PLUG presentation in the Thurm's class at SCC a few months ago, one of > the hot topics that popped up was firewalls and where to get distros to set > them up.
