you can Mangle Nat or Filter with the OUTPUT chain. if you wish to stop outward bound telnet connections you could iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --destination-port telnet -j DROP This can also be handy if you have an internal network full of MS machines that like to report back "home" with your MAC IP address and info about your P3/P4 processor and any other info it sends. enjoy Kevin -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
