HYPERAXE

For some reasons, I found out that APF and Shorewall firewalls are not working on my VPS. I’m not really sure if my VPS host is running an old version of Virtuozzo (SWSoft claims their current release of Virtuozzo VPS manager supports the needed netfilter modules for APF and Shorewall), or if they really didn’t take time to enable the needed modules to allow running the said firewalls.

Anyway, I just wrote my own iptables firewall script to somehow implement if not a completely secure iptables based firewall, at least my VPS would have some degree of protection from the bad guys of the net.
