I tried firestarter 8.3 and 9.0 in Redhat 7.3, RH 8.0 and Mdk 9.0 and it was sheer depency hell. Even the dependencies had dependencies, one was about 20 files. I said to hell with the dependency hell! :mad:

I installed Firestarter 0.8.2 in RH 7.3. No problem whatsoever, worked great straight out of the box.

I can't say the same about Mandrake 9.0 tho, like yourself, dependancy hell!

I should have tried the older version as you did. The newer ones couldn't find gnome-2.0 and libgnome-common, etc. I may have to try 0.8.2 if it will set up the ipchains for connection sharing.

I've to 2 Win2k PC's connecting to my RH 7.3 box, which is doing the IP masq'ing, etc.
Took a few mins to set up, nice and easy for a newbie like me.
