Hello,

I've recently done an 'emerge sync' and kmyfirewall appears to have been removed from portage. I've been using this app to manage my home server's firewall and wanted to try out one of the newer versions. I saw in the CVS logs in mid February that it was moved from net-misc to net-firewall, but now it seems to be gone altogether. Was it replaced by something better/easier/?

You might want to try net-firewall/knetfilter.

My guess is that it was accidentally dropped. It's actually a fairly nice iptables management app.

User's status just tells how many posts you have posted here. over 75 and you are Tux's little helper, over 150 and you are Apprentice etc.

I like it. You still need to have a fairly good understanding of IPtables, but it's a decent interface for manipulating the tables. I've attached an ebuild for 0.95 below. Just put it in /usr/porrtage/net-firewall/kmyfirewall

SRC_URI="mirror://sourceforge/$PN/$P.tar.bz2"

This is the basic 0.9.2 kmyfirewall ebuild which you need to save as kmyfirewall-0.9.5.ebuild
