Hey guys,

  Hello Edgar,

-About your first request let's say the "IP group feature":

    * There is an object type called group in Zone/Networks.
    * You can add any host you've have previously defined to this group

See my comment below.

-About the copy/paste feature:

    * This might be a good idea but with vuurmuur script it's not really
      needed, check docs
      <http://wiki.vuurmuur.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Scripting> on
      the wiki

This is true Phil, but i think it would certainly be a useful addition to the GUI as well. I have felt the need before as well :-)

I am having serious time constraints the next few months, so i don't think i will get to implementing this. I'll be happy to guide someone else through the code though... any takers?

-About name with dots:

    * I'll let victor asnwer this one ;-)

This won't be possible because the dots are used to distinguish between zones, networks and hosts/groups. Personally, i believe one of the strong points of Vuurmuur is this naming scheme, since it forces you to always consider a host or network in its context of its zone and network.

The best way to represent domain names would be by using something like an underscore.

mx1-1_hotmail_com.world.inet
mx1-2_hotmail_com.world.inet
mx1-3_hotmail_com.world.inet
mx1-4_hotmail_com.world.inet
mx2-1_hotmail_com.world.inet
etc

then create a group:
mx_hotmail_com.world.inet with all the hosts as members and use that in your rules.

I could imagine that creating a script that updates this once a day or so using vuurmuur_script would be very useful.

Regards,
Victor
