firewalld nightmares


Recommended Posts

firewalld is closely tied to network manager.  i started a bug but the ebuild is buggy enough to warrant moving the discussion to here.

https://bugs.funtoo.org/browse/FL-2327

 

these are the first steps to getting the package running.  firewalld doesn't require dropping connections and entirely resetting the firewall to update rules, its default in fedora & centos.  i think it's going to require some de-systemding.  i haven't worked on it further yet...  last night i spent about 2 hours on this issue.  tonight ill probably spend another 2 tracking down its shortcomings.  i dont need replies i just need to track what updates im making to have it become funtoo friendly.

0.2.12 doesn't like me...  lets try 0.3.13, time to dig into ebuilding docs  0.3.13 works with ./configure && make && sudo make install! =D

 

so i found a firewalld ebuild for 0.3.10, how do i setup local overlays so i can tweak this to latest?

system-config-firewall is a dependency of firewalld...  1 this program doesn't like python 3 at all...  2 under python 2.7 it wants to write its iptables configurations @ /etc/sysconfig/iptables & /etc/sysconfig/ip6tables....

 

whoa system-config-firewall is a gui app it does a good job setting things for iptables (in the wrong directory =)

root@spaceball-1 /home/mkultra/overlays/testing/system-config-firewall-1.2.29 # iptables -L -n
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)

unfortunately ufw is 1000x as effective as this.  it's seriously letting everything through, not stopping much.
