[Firestarter-user] Help with firestarter

[Karolina L. <pgd...@al...>]

I have just started to use firestarter -- or is trying to.

But my problem is that when I start the firewall, nothing works on my system.
It appears that firestarter blocks requests to highports, 33031, 33026, and 
so on, and such accesses seems to be generated by mail get/send, surfing and 
everything. How do I enable accesses to those ports?

I tried to enter 32767:40000 in rules "open service to anyone", but it does 
not work. firestarter is still blocking high port accesses.



Apart from this, I get errors from the firestarter.sh script. Here is from a 
sh -vx /etc/firestarter.sh

<<<<< cut >>>>>>
# --------( Rules Configuration - Inbound Traffic - Block Traffic w/ 
Incorrect Flags )--------

$IPT -t filter -I INPUT -i $IF -m unclean -j UNCLEAN
+ /sbin/iptables -t filter -I INPUT -i eth0 -m unclean -j UNCLEAN
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

<<<<<< cut >>>>>>
# --------( Rules Configuration - Outbound Traffic - Block Traffic w/ 
Incorrect Flags )--------

$IPT -t filter -I OUTPUT -o $IF -m unclean -j UNCLEAN
+ /sbin/iptables -t filter -I OUTPUT -o eth0 -m unclean -j UNCLEAN
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

<<<<<<< cut >>>>>>>

If I enable IP Masquerading, I get even more errors from the script.

And then, when firestarter is running, I can't ping any machine.
