I installed Raptor FW on Solaris 7.0.4. Platform is SUN V210 with at least four ethernet interfaces.
For security, normally, we turned off routing on a Unix box (which by default is ON, right?). But if it is a firewall, i'd think you'd want the SUN to route.
We aren't getting packets delivered... (1 Reply)

netscript-compile
NET-COMPILE(8) System Manager's Manual NET-COMPILE(8)
NAME
netscript-compile - netscript ipfilter-defs compile back end.
SYNOPSIS
netcript-compile [ -fhq ] [ -b max-backup-level ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the netscript-compile command from the netscript router/firewall network configuration package.
This command is the back end to the netscript compile command documented in netscript(8) manpage. See ipfilter-defs(5) for the details on
the definitions files in /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.
By default it checks to see if the relevant files in the /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory have been updated by comparing their modi-
fication times to that of /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf, and if updating is needed, it recompiles and re-creates the file. Up to max-
backup-levels of history are kept of previously compiled /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf files, with a numeric extention in order of
increasing age.
OPTIONS
-b max-backup-level
Sets the maximum level of backups kept of previously compiled files. This defaults to 2 (see /etc/netscript/netscript-com-
pile.conf), and it is also used by the netscript(8) compile command.
-f Force compile even though compile file is up to date with definitions. The testing depends on the modification times of the defini-
tion file inodes in the file system.
-h
Show a summary of options.
-q Quiet compile. This option suppresses informational progress messages.
FILES
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf,
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs-compiled.conf,
/etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory.
SEE ALSO
ipfilter-defs(5), netscript(8).
