IP Firewall (for Linux-2.2)[edit | edit source]

The new firewalling code is accessed via IP Firewalling Chains. See the ipchains home page for more information. Among other things, you'll now need to use ipchains instead of ipfwadm to configure your filters. (From Documentation/Changes in the latest kernel sources). We are aware that this is a sorely out of date statement and we are currently working on getting this section more current. You can expect a newer version in August 1999.
