I dont know what is your problem in your two eth device and what are you going to do with 2 eth device. if you can please state it....

by the way here's a link for the firestarter... Download - Firestarter
download a firestarter, it is a firewall manager that is very much easy to use, i dont think that even a newbie one can easily manage it.

hmmm...

you may have tyo do a bit of reading here, and i dont mean just a follow a guide which tells you to do everything but actually learn how to use the system.

First stop shop should always be the man pages/info pages. Just type

man iptables

or

 info iptables

to find a wealth of knowledge. And read a few general tutorials on the subject to find your best configuration. Its not a problem i've had so 'm not sure but i dont think you can set up two different firewall polices for one machine with two interfaces but i could be wrong. Anyway, check out those an pages!!

Oh .....and welcome to the forums

Ok...just to clarify iptables does allow you to make separate rules per interface for both input and output interfaces using the --in-interface ( or -I ) and --out-interface ( or -o ) options respectively.
