UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi folks,


I am a Mac User, and have little knowledge on IPFW.

I have a set up at home where my computer (with 2 ethernet cards and static IP adresses) serves Internet to my family's computers.

I have already a script that will run automatically at login and called from Cron at certain times, the purpose is to stop serving Internet to certain computers at a certain time.

I need help with a command that will block all trafic from and to an specific computer. But using the IP address is not enough. I wonder if I could specify the ethernet card's Mac Address within the IPFW command.

Is this possible?

Would someone be so kind to write me here an example line?

Thank you!

Hi Neo,

This is a very good Man page.

The one in my system is not a complete.

Thanks!
