2005/1/14-17 [Computer/Networking] UID:35720 Activity:nil | 1/14 I am trying to use DI-604 as a firewall but it comes with zero doc.
about ipfw rules. The firewall rules has only one port specification.
Does it refer to the wan or lan? Are the rules stateful or static?

2004/12/28-29 [Computer/Networking] UID:35459 Activity:low | 12/28 How can I find out the IP addresses of the machine that a program is
running on? I know one way is just to gethostname() and then do a
gethostbyname() on that. But that relies on the resolver. Ideally,
I'd like to do it the way 'ifconfig' does it (which AFAICT doesn't
rely on the resolver), but I haven't been able to track down yet
exactly how it does it. Thanks.

2004/12/2-4 [Computer/Networking] UID:35157 Activity:moderate | 12/2 I used the "ShieldUp" website to probe my Mac and it shows that port 0
and 1 are replying to outside query to say they are closed instead of
just playing deaf like the other lower ports do. I did not single
out port 0 and 1 in the ipfw rules I use. What rules should I use to
close this loophole?
\_ First off, don't use random pages like that, as Steve Gibson is

2004/5/9-10 [Computer/Networking, Computer/SW/OS/FreeBSD] UID:30119 Activity:moderate | 5/9 Sometimes I need to upload large files on my 1500k/192k aDSL. This
totally kills my Internet usability. Is there any uber cool BSD/Darwin
tool that will let me throttle a particular socket? If I could just
limit my FTP to something like 128k... tnx

2003/9/4 [Computer/SW/OS/FreeBSD] UID:10072 Activity:nil | 9/4 Does anyone know whether there's a way to use interface names
in an ipfilter/ipnat configuration, as opposed to an interface's IP
address? -John
\_ With ipfw there was, and I think ipf has a way to. Must dig some.
... with pf (openbsd) it is very simple.

2003/6/27 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:28849 Activity:high | 6/26 This command is hanging on my RH linux box:
ping -c 1 -t 1 http://www.yahoo.com
It doesn't hang from here on timeout. What should i do?
\_ you are setting your TTL to 1 hop? why would you do that?
you are basically saying "if you have to go through more than
1 router, die.." and im sure yahoo is at least 5 hops away.

2002/2/21-22 [Computer/HW/CPU] UID:23938 Activity:high | 2/21 reposting my question. Is it possible to filter gige traffic
with freebsd on x86? Can the fastest pentium out there do that?
I'm talking about running ipfw or ACLs. Please do not turn this
question into a troll on linux vs freebsd. Thanks.
\_ Processor speed is definitely not your problem. I think you may
run into problems where gige would overwhelm the PCI bus. Not

2001/10/19-20 [Computer/Networking, Computer/SW/OS/FreeBSD] UID:22779 Activity:very high | 10/19 Home Gateway recommendations wanted. I am thinking of getting
a NetGear RP114. I use Pacbell DSL (dhcp not static ip). Any
pros/cons to using this model? Is there a better one within
the same price range? (approx $120). thanks.
\_ I use a Linksys for around $98. It has firewall, IPSEC
support, 10/100 support. No "parental control" though.

2001/2/26-27 [Computer/Networking] UID:20703 Activity:very high | 2/26 Is it possible to use ipfw in *BSD to let users do FTP gets but not
FTP puts? I'm being asked to let people get stuff from the internet
but not let them send anything out. If ipfw can't do it, how about a
commercial firewall like Cisco PIX or Checkpoint? Thanks.
\_ Checkpoint can't. I don't know about PIX, it might have
tcp payload inspection.
