Hello All - 

I'd like to filter netbios communications between my wireless clients.  I make
iptables rule(s) that should stop all the traffic between the wireless folks,
but they are still able to do windows shares, etc.  I would assume that:

    iptables -A FORWARD -i netcs0 -o netcs0 -j DROP 

where netcs0 is my wireless interface would stop them from seeing one another,
but it doesn't.  Advertised shares are visible and can be used through my
soekris box anyway.

>From my reading, I'm getting the idea that netbios (or netbuei?) is the
protocol being used by windows to advertise and implement windows networking
(shares, etc.).  Is that independant of IP?  Shouldn't iptables be able to
filter that anyway?  tcpdump doesn't list an IP address for the traffic I
believe I'm trying to stop, just MAC addresses and things like 'sap' and
'ip-sap' instead of port numbers.

How do I filter windows networking traffic with my soekris box / wisp combo?

Thanks.
