Mike: Am I mistaken or can MAC-oriented IPFW2 rules be used along side
IP-oriented rules ? I ask bec I setup a very simple script that would filter
all but a couple of MAC addrs then fwd incoming IPs to an internal web
site. I *thought* I tried all of the reasonable combinations, but I TOO
would like to know more about this. That is, I can filter certain MAC addrs
*OR* I can filter/forward certain IPS, but I can't do both in the same IPFW
script. Later....Jet
