Feedback thread for improving LnS
Is LnS still being developed? I know a lot people will say it is perfect the way it is, but no new builds / versions have been released in almost 2 years. What do other users on this forum think? What would you like to see added, changed, or improved about LnS? I just want to see development of this firewall continued. I'm still learning more about this firewall so I will hold my opinion until have mastered all its settings & features. I hope the developer is reading this thread so he or she will have good feedback on ways to improve this very light pure packet filtering firewall.

Re: Feedback thread for improving LnS
It would be nice to hear from Frederic. He has not posted here in over a year. If it wasn't for Phant0m updating his ruleset I would probably be looking for a different firewall.

Re: Feedback thread for improving LnS
I must say I'm very pleased with LnS so far. I only wanted it for my 2 P4 3.4ghz machines because a HIPS firewall is a little much when running my other security apps together. So this Frederic has been MIA for some time. Well, I think he should update the users on his future plans for LnS.

Re: Feedback thread for improving LnS
Sad to say this, but it looks like an abandonware to me.
On the other hand, its one of a very rare breed of a true firewall that doesn't really need much update, imo. Most of all the latest firewall incorporate HIPS or IDS, that I don't need. They look great on tests though. Its one of those rare jewels like FD-ISR, that's just too good for what it does. |

Re: Feedback thread for improving LnS
Yep, no word from Frederic or any of the developers is getting a bit unsettling. The only thing keeping this section of the forum going is Phantom and other users. LnS is such a tremendous little pure firewall and I have used it for years. No plans to leave it in the short term but......

i haven't tried it yet but if LnS works with Windows 7 it should workwith W8 as well. i did not have LnS at the times but ALL my programs worked when i tried W8 a few weeks ago.
