The problem with using LIMIT/BURST is that if some people really want fast access then *other* people may be locked out. LIMIT/BURST limits the total number of connections *from all clients*. If you want to Limit the per-client connection rate, you need to use the 'Limit' action. With DNAT that means that you must configure separate DNAT- and Limit rules. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key
