No it's not possible. Netfilter only works on IPs, which means if you do that, iptables will resolve the DNS name _now_ and use the result to push the rule that won't be updated afterwards if IP changes. However, if you have an idea of how often the IP changes, you can write a script that queries the name regularly and update your ruleset accordingly when it changes. -- http://sid.rstack.org/ PGP KeyID: 157E98EE FingerPrint: FA62226DA9E72FA8AECAA240008B480E157E98EE >> Hi!
