Policies and Rules

I have my MNF firewall up (shorewall backend) and I have a couple of questions regarding firewall rules and policies. I want to let only a few types of data pass through my firewall out and in.

 

Outgoing I have....

Port 1433 for SQL connections to servers out there in the field

Port 5631 and 5632 for PCAnywhere

 

Incoming I have...

Port 25 for my SMTP mail

Port 80 for my web server on DMZ

 

How can I add these using the web interface for Mandrake MNF 8.2?

What woudl be the correct entry for the Rules section?

I use a simple rule and just set as such right?

 

Rule ID = n

Pre-defined Service = smtp

Protocol = tcp

Coming From = WAN

And going to: = LAN - 10.0.0.1 (IP of mail server here)

 

Won't this create a successful port forward of inbound email traffic?

 

Thanks!

Wiley
