A feature of Linux 2.4 is that you can route/firewall/filter based on the username. For example, if I log in as 'andrew' to my machine, I get to go out to the wide-world via the Microwave link with no restrictions. If I log on as 'someotheruser' I'm shunted out a modem link. My question: Can FreeBSD route based on a username? Will IPFW/IPF filter based on username? Obviously, this is only going to work if the user is logged onto the local workstation. Can someone please clarify this for me?
