Re: [leaf-user] leaf-user Digest, Vol 204, Issue 1

   If I am understanding you correctly, this is how I would accomplish
   that.  I'm assuming Shorewall (the default firewall on Leaf, unless
   that has changed) is running.  You can confirm by:
   shorewall status
   You should see a message including "Shorewall is running."
   If you do, edit /etc/shorewall/policy and look for the line that is
   similar to this:
   loc             fw              ACCEPT
   In that line, change ACCEPT to REJECT
   Then, in /etc/shorewall/rules, add these rules for the IPs you want to
   allow from your lan to connect to your firewall, one line for each IP:
   ACCEPT    loc:192.168.0.5/24    fw   all
   The /24 assumes that your subnet mask for your firewall is
   255.255.255.0.  If it is different, you will need to modify that, and
   of course make the IP address match your config.
   After you make that edit, run:

   shorewall restart

   Verify it was successful, and you should be good to go.

     Hello Robert,
     Thanks a lot for your response. Hmm... the documentation of leaf
     Bering uClibc is unavailable again:
     "
      Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.
     Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.
     (Cannot access the database)
     "
     A month ago I copied near all of that as html files.
     My answer for you question:
     I haven't even tried. I don't know how.
     Marco described another solution for me, but I'm not a Linux man. I
     didn't understand that. So I did what I described. It works, but not
     exactly how I wanted.

         S?awek,
         Did you overcome the problems you had with this?

           Hi,
           Please forgive my poor English.
           I have small success. My leaf bering boots from USB and works.
     Near
           properly. Near.
           I have two PC. One with Windows 11 and second for leaf. Both
     have
           keyboards and monitors.
           Steps I took:
           1. Using image Bering-uClibc_x86_vga.img and  Rasberry Pi
     Imager I
           recorded the first USB with version 7.0.0. In Rasberry Pi
     Imager I
           set the login and password for that leaf.
           2. The partition on the USB had only 64 MB so using DiskGenius
     I
           expanded it to 128 MB.
           3.  I logged into the booted from USB and upgraded doing:
     upgrade
           --release 7.5.1.
           4. I configured that a little.
           And it works. My PC with Windows has access to net via
     firewall. My
           firewall ignores pings to him. And longing to him from net is
           impossible. And I changed the IP4 number to one I made up.
           But I need two things in configuration. First I want ignore
     local
           connections from IP doesn't accepted by me. I wrote the
     accepted
           list to hosts.allow. Something like that, of course with my
     IP:
           # Allow anything from the local net
           #ALL: 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
           192.168.1.x
           192.168.1.y
           192.168.1.z
           where 192.168.1.x, 192.168.1.y and 192.168.1.z are the allowed
     IP by
           me.
           But it doesn't work. I don' understood the guide. I'm not
     linux man.
           Probably it must be done in other way.
           The second which I want is to have working webconf. Now it is
     still
           asking for login and password in not ending loop. From
     Firefox,
           Chrome and Edge. Seems something is wrong.
           Best Regards
           S?awek
