SuSE Firewall: looking for a control who can connect from internal net to the internet

11 Jan 2001

      Hello!

I'm looking for a way to configure my SuSE 7.0-firewall-script (v2.6), that
I can control which IP-address is allowed to get through to the internet.

If I configure 'FW_MASQUERADE=yes' and
'FW_MASQ_NETS="172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0" ', every machine of the
172.16.x.x-net is able to connect to the internet.

But I need to allow certain IP-addresses internet and other IP-addresses of
the same (sub)net mustn't be able to do so. If possible it should be
configurable in an external file.

Any hints?

TIA
Christoph.
