Or i need a script to bind ip to mac? Thank's Dan. If you're running a recent release of freebsd (4.8 or later should do), you can recompile your kernel with IPFW2, which supports filtering by mac addresses; see the ipfw manpage for more information. IPFW2 is the default in 5.x, so you wouldn't need to recompile if you're running 5.x. Mike "Silby" Silbersack
