Hello,

Yes, e-smith uses ipchains. The firewall rules are not configurable via the user interface though; rather, a standard configuration is used for all installations.

Advanced users can edit the firewall template files however, and customize to their heart's content.

Future versions of e-smith will offer a selection of firewalling configurations via the user interface.

Best regards,
- Joe
