First of all, thank you to all of you who have helped to make iptables possible, whether in writing the code for it or testing it. It is BETTER than sliced bread! :-) Anyways, I have two questions related to the use of iptables. 1. I read on a post somewhere that it is smart to put the following two rules at the end of one''s iptables ruleset: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 -j

Is it possible to use the linux ethernet bridging code and two tap interfaces for this
