hey guys i have ntop on a windows based network being run by a linux
firewall and i was just wondering that while using ntop you can see
how much bandwidth each computer on your network is using. now i case
i realise that someone is using high bandwidth and i want to stop his
download say, is there a way i can do it remotely without me actually
going to him and stopping the download myself supposing am at a
remote
location?
ssh <ntop-host>
iptables -I FORWARD -s <offender> -j DROP
iptables -I FORWARD -d <offender> -j DROP
There's also "route add -host <offender> reject" which is closer to
what Mark suggested but a firewall rule will be less astonishing to
anyone else who looks at that box.
