Re: Home network

Hi,

this should be possible,

you may wish to set up a DMZ and place your ftp services there, on you firewall
you should also be able to specify what type of traffic is allowed into your
network and where each type of traffic is allowed to go.

Have you tried the firewalls mailing list at

 firewalls lists gnac net

hth,

Ahbaid.
