Guest NaturesOdd Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 (edited) Sorry if this has been asked before but how do i stealth my ports with GuardDog!? I mean which options do i cross... i have tried but it just denies my browser access to the net, thanks :unsure: [EDIT] Ok, i got Shorewall to stealth most of my ports (it asked me to install the package from cd, never done that before :unsure: ) Now i only have two ports open 80 and 113, are they ok to be left as they are or should i try and stealth those too?

aioshin Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 try to read about iptables / netfilter, (netfilter.org) even the basics can stealth your box from the internet but open in your LAN... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolf Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Guarddog is pretty easy. Press the Help button and read the KDE Guarddog Handbook. For a one-box web browser, just check the protocols you need to have served to you in the Internet Zone. Putting the X will 'Block' packets, sending confirmation to the sender, and will show 'Closed' at grc.com, so don't X if you want 'Stealth'. Some of the protocols I need are http, https, dns, ftp, cddb, smtp, pop, Real Audio, bittorrent... All are checked in the Internet Zone and it tests Stealth. The current Mandriva guarddog has a bug that it won't load the rules at boot, so you have to open and OK guarddog to start it. This bug is fixed in the latest Mandriva rpm at the author's site: http://www.simonzone.com/software/guarddog/ or in the cooker contrib/ package: ftp://ftp.ciril.fr/pub/linux/mandrakelinu...0-3mdk.i586.rpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
