If you're on the same subnet, you could change the evil host's routing tables to send packets to the firewall. Otherwise, it's pretty impossible unless every router between the evil host and the destination is misconfigured to accidently route those packets in the right direction such that they end up at the firewall. Anyhow, this rule: ipchains -A input -i $extint -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 192.168.1.0/24 -l -j REJECT Where $extint is my external ethernet interface and 192.168.1.0/24 is my internal net, makes the firewall throw any packets from the outside destined for any address on the inside away, which makes this whole thing moot. I have yet to get any log entries from this rule. -- Jordan Bettis <http://www.hafd.org/~jordanb/> Ooohh.. "FreeBSD is faster over loopback, when compared to Linux over the wire".
