arch pc as firewall
do i just need to configure iptables to setup an arch system as a network firewall. what i want to do is force all pcs or devices to go through my arch system to filter content out in an acl fashion. so i would connect it to a switch and make it then point to my router. would this work or am i going about this wrong?

Re: arch pc as firewall
In general, yes, that will work. A more detailed question, however, would probably get a more useful answer.

Re: arch pc as firewall
This is my setup:
Internet<----->Modem<---->ArchRouter (iptables, squid)<----->Switch<---->Internal Network
My house is all wired.
I recently added a wlan0 to router, but can't get it to work
