hi list,

got a 486 DX-100 with 16 MB RAM and a 130 MB-Harddisk (IDE).
Is it possible to realize a Bastion-host (Firewall) for my Web-Host,
Mail-Host, FTP-Host ? These are the planned Webservices for this
firewall - no more services !

I'm planning to NOT run X-Windows on the Bastion-Host, can it
be recommended ? Is it possible with RH-linux ?

Which Services I have to install, and which I have to deactivate for a
firewall ?

How I have to setup a DNS behind that firewall ? Am unsure by virtue
of the DNS-HOWTO, because here I've read about to use another
process in realizing a DNS behind a firewall.

The DNS I have to setup, because our provider does not provide a
DNS-Service for our static-IP-based webconnection.

Can anybody help to setup a firewall and DNS (first and second) ?
This is the first time in setting up a complete webconnection.
Your help is very welcome !

bye hans
