How about using proxies? AFAIK, proxy server can't handle anything else than what they have been developped for. :)
Example: A firewall redirects port 80 and 443 to port 3128, where squid listens. I have never seen a P2P user breaking this barrier... :)
I would give proxies a try. Put it so that firewall lets traffic through only when it is originating from the proxy - at least for 80 and other proxied ports/services. Then configure the proxy: deny traffic to sites you do not want accessed etc. Users will be forced to use proxy - even if they do not want to - since the FW is not letting them out otherwise. And when they use the proxy, they will face the rules there. Right? regards, timo
