Hi Charles,

Thanks for your answer. I have read the ipchains howto, but it doesn't
answer all my questions. The ipchains howto describes how I can set up my
rules to restrict the traffic, but I have two problems I have to solve
before that.

1) I haven't managed to get NAT working using iproute2.

2) Is it possible to NAT the server addresses and masquerade all other
addresses? How do I configure this?

When those issues are solved, then it's time to restrict the traffic using
ipchains.

/Ola
