i have added pptpd support to my router, it works fine except that i have to add many lines to allow access to the new PPP connection in iptables.
I want to allow access to any PPP connection (PPP+) that is not PPP0 (since its my external inteface), PPP+ wont work since it will include PPP0 :S....
I know i can order the rules in such a way that it will check bail if the interface is PPP0 and then i may add the accept PPP+ rule... (confused yet??)
So my question here today is: Is there a away to make a simple IPTABLES rule that can accept all PPP connection except PPP0... something like
IPTABLES -A INPUT -I PPP+ ! PPP0 -J ACCEPT
is there such a syntax available to IPTABLES?
I cant seem to find something to suite my needs...
