Free firewall for Solaris 9
[236 byte] By [tunelera] at [2007-11-27 7:02:03] 
Hello,i only know IP FILTER as a free firewall for solaris 9.Is there any other?Is it worth to try to install sunscreen-3.1-lite in Solaris 9,since it is only for Solaris 8?Thanks in advance ...
# 1
I believe that sunscreen 3.1 is now 'free' on solaris 9 and the sunscreen lite limitations of only allowing two interfaces to be protected was removed with a later patch.
Not sure if the sunscreen patches are available for everyone to download or just with a contract.
Sunscreen is still a great firewall and fairly simple to use.

The installer script skips after saying that it installs only for Solaris 2.5 to 2.8.Is there a way to overcome it?Except for these two, is there any other firewall for Solaris 9?tunelera at 2007-7-12 18:53:01 >

Hi,
right, i installed it. Just found the configuration a bit strange.
Is'nt there a config file? How does the system load the
rules at bootup? Is there any example config file or a howto?
I had these problems:
# ssadm edit test
could not acquire read lock.
# ssadm active
couldn't set locale correctly
couldn't set locale correctly
couldn't set locale correctly
couldn't set locale correctly
error 7 -- config error
I do not use locale! Any tip?
Thanks in advance ...
