rcf 5.2.1c2 (development) by jsmoriss (http://freshmeat.net/users/jsmoriss/) Monday, October 22nd 2001 12:43 Categories: Internet, Security, System :: Networking :: Firewalls, System :: Systems Administration About: rcf (aka rc.firewall) is an ipchains-based firewall with support for over 50 network service modules (including vtun, DHCP, NFS, SMB, Napster, proxies, online games, etc.), masquerading, port forwarding, and IP accounting. All services are self-contained modules which can be prioritized in the ipchains stack. Protections include spoofing, stuffed routing/masqerading, DoS, smurf attacks, outgoing port scans, and many more. rcf also supports unlimited public, private (masqu'ed), DMZ, and MZ (non-masq'ed) interfaces and their subnets. Access rules are defined per interface and DMZ/MZ server "clusters". rcf is compatible with Red Hat, Slackware, Debian, Linux Router Project (LRP), and many other distributions. Changes: The module port options were reworked. Support for marking packets was added. Server, client, and port forwarding modules were added to support the Apple Filing Protocol. Cluster operation on a number of modules was fixed. Online-games modules were added to private interfaces, and modules for MSN Gaming Zone and Starsiege Tribes were added. The FAQ was updated with new questions about configuration, fail-over configuration with multiple external interfaces, restarting of only one interface, and new questions on development and CVS usage. Support was added for building a Debian package for RCF by typing "make deb".
