Kai, Would you know how iptables determines who the connection is from? I mean, does it use identd or some other mechinism? The reason I ask is that I currently am using squidguard to filter based on user and identd becomes the largest load on the system when things get busy. If I could use iptables to redirect based on user without using identd, that could be very helpful. Pete Billson -- http://www.elbnet.com ELB Internet Service, Inc.
