Can we add ipchains and ipfwadm?
(see http://www.adelaide.net.au/~rustcorp)
For those of you who aren't on the bleeding edge....2.1.10x kernels will
NOT function with ipfwadm any longer, they use a new program by an aussie
guy called ipchains. It is a lot speccier than ipfwadm and does what it
did, and lots more.
When 2.2.0 is released, it too will be running ipchains not ipfwadm, 2.2
is expected quite soon as it has been in a state of feature freeze for a
tad over a month now.
and no, im not willing to talk on it :) Only done forwarding and masq
rules with it so far :)
