Subject: Shorewall vs. Iptables
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2004 13:32:19 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <004201c3f1af$b16d7fa0$2405010a@rsa> (raw)

Is any one better than the other?

I'm currently running a RedHat box that's soon to be replaced with a
Mandrake machine.  Of course I threw out the Shorewall stuff in favor of
manually implementing the same Iptables ruleset(s) that I have for the RH
machine.

Does Shorewall give any more protection or is it a simply complicated
front-end to iptables?

Cheers,

-=Ray
