RE: [Devil-Linux-discuss] DMZ Problem

[Moray M. <mmc...@ox...>]

Even though you have a DMZ set-up, it is not designed to let any traffic
through from the WAN (internet) into the DMZ except what you expressly
allow to go through in the firewall rules. There's a bunch of sample
rules in /etc/init.d/firewall.rules.=20

Personally I would NEVER put a windows box on the internet unprotected.
Recent surveys have shown that unprotected PCs put on broadband have
hacking attempts made against them within 20 minutes of being online.

Yours,
Moray

Subject: [Devil-Linux-discuss] DMZ Problem

I am using Devil-Linux 1.2.9-i586 and have configured it using the setup
command as a basic three card firewall (with DMZ). I have connected a
client PC (WinXP with software firewall disabled) on the DMZ network,
but when I use ShieldsUp! (www.grc.com), to check my port status  it's
saying they are all closed. Shouldn't I be seeing some ports open like
NetBIOS (139)? it seems as though it is firewalled too?
