#158430 — Re: firestarter

Hi Paul,

You are lucky not to able to install it! firestarter contained a grave
bug that will make booting impossible
<https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=772715>. Besides,
the package was being abandoned by the upstream developers
<https://packages.qa.debian.org/f/firestarter/news/20130608T012654Z.html>.
Sorry, but I think you need to find a similar software.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi Paul,

I personally haven't use such a program since I know very little about
networking stuff.
However, I searched the net and found the a wiki page you might be
interested in <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianFirewall#Graphic_applications_and_frontends>.
The wiki page suggested many Graphic applications and frontends for
iptables, such as ferm <https://packages.debian.org/jessie/ferm>,
which is available since squeeze.

PS: I mistakenly set up auto-reply yesterday, sorry for replying you
with an empty email.

Cheers,
Alex
