firewall without loopback interface
Hi All,
A few years back my college lecturer suggested that the most secure way to setup a (linux) firewall is to not have any loopback (lo) interface and hence it cannot run any local services but only forward traffic back and forth, etc. Obviously you would then have to manage the host from the console.
Any comments ?
