[Samba] Packet filter rules for "outgoing" SMB connections/mounts only?
Hello everyone, Is it possible to configure the packet filter for Linux kenel 2.4.x in a way so outgoing connections (mounts) from the firewalled machines (to a specific IP address) are possible, but no incoming SMB mounts are allowed at all. In other words, I want to be able to mount a share of an external machine, but like to keep the security risks involved as small as possible. Regards, Andreas

The standard internet sharing firewall scripts will do this and then some automagically. See www.netfilter.org for examples.
