Hi

I previously had a network with one Mandrake box A as a internet gateway
(ISDN) using internet connection sharing to some desktops B.

I now have a ADSL modem/router connected to the Mandrake box A and the
router does the NAT and packet filtering.

I now notice that the internet connection seems to bypass box A and does
not go through shorewall at all.

grc.com shows that my IP is that of the router been scanned.

So my question is how can i set this up so shorewall on box A as well as
the router protect the network ?

Plug the firewall into the router on one interface and the internal
network on another, renumber appropriately and add the approrpriate routes
and proxy arp if necessary (or just PAT/NAT again.)
