Installing is fairly straight forward:
|
|
|
|
1. Download to a location of your choosing, I recommend /usr/src
|
|
2. Run 'make install' to put files in /usr/local by default
|
|
3. Edit config files in /usr/local/etc/srfirewall
|
|
4. Run 'srfirewall' command to load the firewall and work its magic
|
|
|
|
If you are upgrading from a previous version and don't want to overwrite
|
|
your config files, use 'make upgrade'.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to install to some place other then /usr/local, you will need
|
|
to edit the Makefile PREFIX as well as the bin/srfirewall script to reflect
|
|
the new location.
|
|
|
|
If you want to run from SVN trunk (for the brave), here's how I would do it:
|
|
|
|
=== Begin commands ===
|
|
cd /usr/src
|
|
svn checkout http://firewall-sosdg.googlecode.com/svn/srfirewall srfirewall-trunk
|
|
ln -s /usr/src/srfirewall-trunk/lib /usr/local/lib/srfirewall
|
|
ln -s /usr/src/srfirewall-trunk/bin/srfirewall /usr/local/bin/srfirewall
|
|
cp -R /usr/src/srfirewall-trunk/etc /usr/local/etc/srfirewall
|
|
=== End commands ===
|
|
|
|
Then when you want to update to bleeding edge, all you have to run is 'svn update'.
|
|
|
|
You _will_ need to look for newly changed/added files and update appropriately.
|
|
|
|
To make the update process easier, I made the config script look for a local.conf file in
|
|
etc/srfirewall that can be used to override the default options. This will allow
|
|
you to replace all of the *.conf files on upgrade without losing local option changes.
|
|
|
|
The default options are designed to be 'sane' for a good portion of the many users,
|
|
so the use of local.conf only needs specific options you wish to override.
|
|
|
|
Files in etc/srfirewall/ipv{4,6} can be safely left alone during upgrade since
|
|
I plan to not make upstream changes to them once they are written and defined
|
|
for use.
|
|
|
|
When in doubt, check the CHANGELOG file for mention of new config options and/or
|
|
config files. |
