This is what i use. It disables torrents, emule, dc++. Kazaa.. don't know. But this can be used even over port 80 or much simplier over http tunnel.

They are not included here. --Adrian. #cutoff emule/torrent iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m multiport --dports 6881,6882,6883,6884,6885,6886,6887,6888,6889,1214 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -m multiport --dports 6881,6882,6883,6884,6885,6886,6887,6888,6889,1214 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m multiport --dports 6346,6347 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -m multiport --dports 6346,6347 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m multiport --dports 4711,4665,4661,4672,4662,8080,9955 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -m multiport --dports 4711,4665,4661,4672,4662,8080,9955 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 4242:4299 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp --dport 4242:4299 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 6881:6999 -j REJECT iptables -A FORWARD -p udp --dport 6881:6999 -j REJECT On Mon, 22 Nov 2004 08:39:38 -0500, Adam Lang <aalang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Two ways to go about it. > > First, block ALL outgoing ports and open only those needed to work (port 80 > from the Squid machine, etc.) > > Second, have management reprimand the people that have these programs > installed on their computers.
