INTRODUCTION
FW CONFIG is a utility I wrote that generates a Linux firewall script via a 
Netscape front end. I could have very easily executed the firewall rules from 
one of the CGI programs, instead, I create a script that can be modified by 
the administrator. This gives the administrator complete control over the 
program, which is generally a good idea.

REQUIREMENTS
In order to use this program (or the IPFWADM command for that matter), you have
to have root access to the Linux Firewall machine and you have to have a kernel 
that supports firewalling, IP masquerade, and firewall logging.

INSTALLATION
To install simply type 'make', this will build the cgi scripts. Then, type 
'sh ./fixperms' this will set up the correct file ownerships and permissions on
the cgi scripts. In order to use the IPFWADM you must be root. Most normal 
people do not run their web servers as root (I hope!) so that left me in a 
bind as to how I would execute the shell scripts. Thus, all CGI programs have
to be "Set UID root".

All comments are welcome!
