Firewall

Debian packages

• shorewall
• arno-iptables-firewall
• pyroman uses config files written in Python

Looking at shorewall first, as I have heard of it already.

I already have webmin and fail2ban installed and working, just need an easy way to build and maintain a whitelist. And I need it today.

Shorewall

Instructions for installation are at http://www.shorewall.net/Install.htm

wget http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/5.0/shorewall-5.0.1/shorewall-core-5.0.1.1.tg
wget http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/5.0/shorewall-5.0.1/shorewall-5.0.1.1.tgz

tar xzvf shorewall-core-5.0.1.1.tgz
tar xzvf shorewall-5.0.1.1.tgz
cd shorewall-core-5.0.1.1
cp shorewallrc.debian.systemd shorewallrc
sudo install.sh
cd ..
cd shorewall-5.0.1.1
cp shorewallrc.debian.systemd shorewallrc
sudo install.sh
/sbin/shorewall version

Now if you go connect to Webmin you should see this version of Shorewall under "Network".
