[Firehol-support] Masking Open Ports

Hi

I've recently found FireHOL and I've started using it on TSL version 3
(Trustix Secure Linux server).  Using the lan-config example I've got a
firewall running.  However, I have to leave standard ports open for FTP
and SMTP packages running on the Fiewall server and these then show up as
open ports when I run a ShieldsUp test.  Is there a way of leaving the
ports open but masking them from port sniffers etc?

Regards

Richard Williams
