actually i was trying to setup a machine which will assign ip addresses
dynamically and also control net access thru iptables.
i ensured that a machine with a mac add will be assigned ip add as given
by me by specifying the following in dhcpd.conf
host hostname {
hardware ethernet 00:B0:D0:64:43:48;
fixed-address 192.168.0.10;
}
and
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -s 192.168.0.10 -j ACCEPT
in the firewall config file.
now was slightly worried that if 192.168.0.10 machine is switched off,
someone can assign 192.168.0.10 to his/her machine and access net.
my method is not good though, and would appreciate if anyone can provide
something better.
thanks
