Salix Forums

Hello All,

Maybe I am missing it but I was not able to find any firewall front-end in the repos. I guess it should be included at least for home (and not much experienced) users who are not so keen on iptables and want to have their machine fairly well protected.
I found a small script called Slackfire at http://slackfire.berlios.de/ which seems to do the job quite reasonably.

Would it be possible to have it as an option in future Salix release?

Regards,
Antonio

I'm planning on submitting shorewall for inclusion to the repo, I just want to update it first.

You can find my package and SLKBUILD here: http://people.salixos.org/pwatk/packages/n/shorewall

I've submitted shorewall and shorewall6 (the IPv6 component) for inclusion: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/salix/ticket/386
