EtherDam is a firewall configuration engine that relies on iptables. It presents firewall configuration as a somewhat simpler scripting language thats still flexible enough for most purposes. So why not just use iptables? Well, lets just face one thing: iptables is a pain to manage. By pain, I mean a heavy dull throb that seems ready to make your head explode. Its nice to finally have a stateful firewalling facility for Linux, but you have to remember fifteen or so different arrangements of the iptables options just to make a simple bare-metal NAT box. Its enough to send you running back to OpenBSD. One day, I got tired of that. So I came up with EtherDam. My goal with EtherDam was to create a simplified firewall configuration language rather than remember or look up several complex incantations of the iptables command. EtherDam is a wrapper; it still uses iptables as a back-end. The processing engine is also fast, though its not extremely well tested. The language itself is fairly complete--complete enough for a decent firewall--though its not properly documented yet. Whats New in This Release: - etherdam.in: - added IPTABLES command support. - added MSS command for TCP MSS clamping. - firewall.conf.5.in: documented MSS command, fixed typos. - firewall.conf.in: added example MSS command usage. - configure, configure.ac, etherdam.spec: bumped version number. - new release (release 0.4).
