Hi!
Well, I'm running Gentoo-r5 with 2.6.14 kernel on x86 architecture with
Shorewall 3.0.8. I'm sure all the right modules/kernel features are
eneabled, but I can't figure our the syntax of the line to block a range in
my "blacklist" file.
Do I just add this in there?:

192.168.4.51-192.168.4.79  

Thanks for the help.

JP

Hi JP,

Its Ahmed here. The problem you wrote seems to have roots in old
version of host OS installed. Can you elaborate a little more which OS
and Version / build are you using ? I had the same problem when i was
operating shorewall under Redhat Linux 9. What i figured out was that
the IPTABLES in that linux build didn't have capability for IP Range
matching. I googled for that solutinon and found that rather advance
release of linux OSs have this capability so i installed Fedora Core 4
and same rules worked just great. Its goes like this, if you want to
allow only IPs from 4.51 to 4.79 to access the internet zone.

ACCEPT  loc:192.168.4.51-192.168.4.79   net

Hope this helps.

Asim Ahmed
