[LUG] Firewall

 

Hi

I have just got a router. (Binatone ADSL 2100  Etherner Router). I am very 
confused about a number of things! (The good news is it is working).  However 
security first.  I use Fedora Core 2.  

If I had a "gateway" computer I would turn off the firewall on all the others.

I think the router is my gateway so I have turned on its firewall, and turned 
the firewall off on my two computers (probably cos I had all sorts of 
problems with my LAN when it was on before).

Is this correct?

As an aside I have tried to google a user manual to no avail BUT......

Peter
