Hi<br />
<br />
I am very new to Linux. I would like to setup a firewall, proxy and dns server on a machine using Debian.<br />
<br />
I started with the dns but am now stuck, partly because I don't understand DNS well either. Here are some facts about my system:<br />
<br />
I registered a domain with networksolutions and the nameservers they allocated me are:<br />
<br />
NS93.worldnic.com and NS94.worldnic.com<br />
<br />
My ISP's addresses has given me a DNS and gateway address, i.e.<br />
<br />
212.111.33.10 for their DNS<br />
212.111.33.11 for their gateway<br />
<br />
I have 2 NIC's in my machine, and one is connected to a wireless device, the other to my hub.<br />
<br />
eth1 = 192.168.20.1 connected to hub<br />
eth0 = 212.111.33.50 connected to wireless<br />
212.111.22.20 is the address for the wireless device<br />
<br />
I have no idea how to set this up and also what sequence to use. Should I do dns first, then firewall then proxy?<br />
<br />
I started with the dns so would prefer to just carry on with that if possible.<br />
<br />
Any help is appreciated.<br />
<br />

Setting up Debian to be firewall, proxy and dns server.

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).

Linux Distributions

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
