I would urge you to get your networking fundae in place if this is your bread/butter job. Once your networking fundae are clear, you will be able to Google search with better precision. Claiming "new to networking" may work one or two times only IMO. Yes what you want to be done is possible with iptables but it will be for all users, not just root, because iptables works at the IP layer and not the application layer. Before you delve into iptables you need to draw a network diagram and visualize the packet flow. Then you need to understand the functionality of the "tables" built into iptables, then chalk out rules and implement them. Post your iptables rules, tell us what errors you are encountering. Perhaps, then list members can help you. While you are doing it, also invest in O'Reilly's the "Linux Networking Cookbook" by Carla Schroder. At Rs. 500 (minus15% discount at most book shops) it is a steal, given that it covers solutions for a lot of networking scenarios. -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
