At the very least I'd do the following with iptables: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
iptables -P INPUT DROP |
| 14 |
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT |
| 15 |
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT |
| 16 |
iptables -A OUTPUT -m state --state NEW,RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
This will make sure that there are no incoming connects except those that |
| 19 |
you |
| 20 |
initiated. |
