As for look n stop ,I have a question to ask!

I have used look n stop firewall for several months,but I was puzzled by servaral questions about rules !

First,the fewer rules ,the better??If that,why don not we just set the rules about the common Application procedure,not set about rules about the others??for example ,SYN Time and so on!and also the end of the rule is Block : All other packets.

Second,the differents bettween the enhanced rules and Phant0m`s-v7Build4?
thank you!!!

 

the fewer rules teh better...looknstop already runs very light, i dont think its something to worry about.

enhanced v. phant0m's ruleset...phant0m's ruleset is more secure (against leaktests i suppose) but either one will give u stealth results in the shieldsup test (grc.com).

 

thanks for fast answer!

when I run pudit2 test ,it pass the firewall without any notifacation!why?
and enhanced v. phant0m's ruleset,enhanced rules contain more rules,why say the phant0m's ruleset is more secure ??
thank you!!

 

when u do the audit2 test, which version of LnS are u using? which ruleset are u using? have u enabled "watch thread injection"?

unless my vision is poor, the phant0m ruleset has more rules than teh enhanced one. or maybe its cuz i have v6?

 

when I do the test,I use 2.05sp3,I use Phant0m`s-v7Build4.rls,I already enabled "watch thread injection",but the test pass the firewall without any message!!

 

have u enabled teh beta features for LnS v2.05p3?

go to the LnS directory and doubleclick lns-ActivateBetaFeatures.reg.

 

Thans,yes,I have already doubleclick lns-ActivateBetaFeatures.reg and enabled teh beta features,and when I only see in the option FO2_Ok and FO3_Ok ,but I don not seeFO4_Ok and FO5_Ok ,these days i just be puzzled by the questions,why?can you tell me?thanks again!!!

 

well i dont know why LnS is failing, maybe it cant pass the test? ill PM Frederic later.

 

Where is the L n S directory to download the beta features?

 

C:\Program Files\Soft4Ever\looknstop

 

Thanks.

 

Thank you for all your help!!!!

 

i just checked the firewall leak tester site and LnS cannot pass te Audit2 test yet, so dont worry.

 

Thank you very much!!!
