My server has been online for several days. And its DEFINATELY time to setup a firewall. I was going to use PMFirewall, However i have no clue how to set it up. Or even where to start, if you could please guide me in the right direction, or a link to get instructions. It would be greatly appreciated.

download it at pointman.org/pmfirewall

run install.sh....and it will ask you simple questions about configuring your router.

Visit this site http://www.pmfirewall.com/PMFirewall/

and follow the instructions :)

This is what you may need to do:

root# tar -zxvf pmfirewall-1.1.4.tar.gz
root# vi INSTALL :stickout

Please check out some install document or readme. Last time (i.e. 1.5 years ago) it was pretty straight forward to install.

If there is any specific question, come back to WHT :)

Thanks alot guys! installation went very smoothly. Easier than i had anticipated.

I'm glad :)

Unix is much easier than windows! ;) Isn't it? :stickout
