"We recommend you enable _everything_ except ipchains support and ipfwadm |
| 14 |
support as modules under this menu" |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
In case I did something out to bork this myself, I'm going to unmerge |
| 17 |
firestarter and iptables, rebuild the kernel into the state it was before |
| 18 |
this started (genkernel --kernel-config=my.old.config all), emerge iptables |
| 19 |
(instead of letting firestarter emerge do it), make sure that iptables loads |
| 20 |
up ok, then emerge firestarter and configure it. That way, I can be sure |
| 21 |
that it's not me just getting in a hurry to install a package... |

Oh, John, to hell with "the doc you found" (which look to be from the |
| 47 |
Wiki). No offense to the wiki (or to you), but you're really |
| 48 |
overcomplicating this. You're probably better off with the Firestarter |
| 49 |
docs found here |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
http://www.fs-security.com/docs/kernel.php |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
which are complete, and clear, and designed to work with the Firestarter |
| 54 |
front end.... you know, "official docs"...? :) |
