Hello,
Please tell me how can I block an Url. I want something like this:
iptables -A FORWARD -s $MYNET -d www.xxxx.com -j DROP

It does'n work.
I want to block an url not an IP. Is this possible with iptables?

Thanks
dda

I am no expert, but I did read the Tutorial at http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.n...-tutorial.html recently.
(reference table 6.4 on this page)

It appears to me you could use CIDR format only. I'm thinking you could resolve the URL to an IP or IP range if it has mutiple host
then block it that way. I didn't see anything about blocking a URL though. (eg...192.168.0.1/24)

If anyone else knows another way I'd be curious to know myself.

Try install a gui. like Firestarter ~ it 's working fine ~ or read a bit the man page of Iptables. As incerca firestarter daca as fi in locu' tau.
