Enabling Firewall on Redhat 9 (should be 2.4.18) ? (fwd)
Sorry, the kernel is 2.4.18. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 13 May 2004 13:16:41 -0400 (EDT) From: frank19991@hotmail.com Newsgroups: comp.os.linux.networking Subject: Enabling Firewall on Redhat 9 (with 2.2.18) ? Hi,folks, I am thinking to use dummy net on Linux (I guess it's "ipfwadm"). I tried to "make xconfig" to enable "ipfwadm". But that item is dark (doesn't allow me to set it). What other items should I enable to enable that ? Thanks! Frank

No need for ipfwadm in 2.4.x. Try iptables ;-). Wait, don't recompile your kernel, it is propably on your system. Alex

I need to emulate a different bandwidth link, say 7Mbps instead of 10Mbps.
