I run redhat 7.2 on a DSL connection. The DSL modem I use requires the user
to open "pinholes" before the service becomes available to the "outside
world". I have opened the ports that I need, and on those ports (ie: FTP
:21), I have restricted these ports on my server (ie: FTP restricted to real
users only......class real *).
My question is......do I need to configure my server firewall, or does the
modem block all ports I haven't opened - therfore requiring me to only
configure the servers security on the modems open ports. Example: I have
closed port 22 on the modem, so I shouldn't need to attend to sshd security?
Hope that all sounds coherent enough......
Thanks,
Richard
