iptables script

Hi

I need a shell script which uses iptables. This file will check the size of the outgoing packet of each client in my gateway server. If the size is greater than a specified amount then it should drop the packet.

Any idea of how do i do this

I known a bit of shell sript and iptables

thanks & regards

great place to go, I have written a few scripts using it (don't expect someone to write it for you)

if you want code examples you can go to my script examples at: www.sourceforge.net/projects/exmmpkg

lol, in that case I will need to get im/e-mail info.. basically I test my scripts with mplayer and all 100 progs needed to unleash its full capeabilities, but I have not tested it with much else, so I need testing there.. than also the exp package system (part of it) needs testing, on my main sys it seems fine, but on my laptop it does nto work at all, so if you coudl test that that would be sweet (there should be basic instructions there to int he files)
