Linux Firewall

Linux Firewall
Hi,

If you are on a Linux Server and want added Security, Installing a Firewall is very important.

CSF (Config Security Firewall) or APF (Advanced Policy Firewall) are long known and great firewalls for Linux. At the same time, they are easy to install and use.

Tutorial:
Code:
wget http://www.configserver.com/free/csf.tgz
tar zxf csf.tar.gz
sh /csf/install.sh

Once Installed, use the following Options:
Code:
csf -s // starts the firewall
csf -r // restarts the firewall

For Configuration options, open the Configuration File - /etc/csf/csf.conf
