Question


I have used the firewalltool to build my ipchainsfirewall with REDHAT 7.0. It works perfect but i can't find how to get the firewall working with two newsservers?
On google's i found this as the answer:
NEWS_SERVER="news.arnhem.chello.nl"
NEWS_SERVER_2="news.newspro.nl"
but then i get the message "unknown command" when i start up the firewall, so that doesn't work.
If someone knows how to?

Add the new service to the script that the tools makes for you, or type this in the command line as root.

For example: (1.2.3.4 is your external internet IP address)

# Newsgroup access
ipchains -A output -p tcp -s 1.2.3.4 1023:65535 --dport 119 -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A input -p tcp ! -y -s 0/0 --sport 119 -d 1.2.3.4 1023:65535 -j ACCEPT
