I'm trying to : use the rule sets that are in /etc/ppp. If you are refering to /etc/ppp/ppp.conf.filter.sample then this file has nothing to do with pppd or the ppp interfaces. This is a sample configuration file for iijppp (aka userppp) which uses the tunnel devices (ie tun0, tun1..) : Is there a FAQ? "man ppp" should help for userlevel ppp. As for filtering with pppd (aka kernel ppp) I'm not sure. Try a "man pppd" and if its not described in there try a "man ipfw". Do not fall into the trap that because you have enabled some filtering that you have secured your system :) Regards, Peter -- Peter Childs --- http://www.imforei.apana.org.au/~pjchilds Finger pjchilds@al.imforei.apana.org.au for public PGP key Drag me, drop me, treat me like an object!
