is't possible to block user from being nat'ed with
iptables?
Sure.

INET_IP="a.b.c.d" # Your internet IP address
USER_IP="192.168.0.11" # IP of user1
LAN="192.168.0.0/24" # LAN where user1 is in

$ipt -P FORWARD DROP
$ipt -A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
-j ACCEPT
$ipt -A FORWARD -m state --state NEW -s $USER_IP -j
ACCEPT
$ipt -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $LAN -j SNAT --to
$INET_IP

Here, it's possible to perform NAT for the entire
LAN (see the rule for
the nat table). However, the policy for the FORWARD
chain in the filter
table (which is where most of us do filtering) is
set to DROP so every
packet that did not match a rule that accepts a
packet will be dropped.
Only ESTABLISHED and RELATED packets (which will be
the most) will be
accepted, as well as NEW packets from user1. This
way only user1 will be
able to use the internet (assuming routing is setup
correctly). It's up
to you to get ccproxy on the PC of user1 working.

thanks Rob, but i'm litle bit confusing about this. If
user1 install ccproxy & user2 use user1 as a proxy for
their browser & user2 can connect.
From linux server point of view, he just know, request
come from user1 IP not from user2 IP, so he will
forward it not block. is't right?

If a proxy or NAT is used on Machine1, all you see is the IP of this machine. now what you can do depends on the details:

- first, why do you want to block user2. Without knowing the real problem details, you will not know whether any approach is the right solution.

- second, why does user1 install ccproxy? (is it to share the connection with user2?). battling against internal users is harder than fighting oustiders.

- finally, what kind of network architecture/administrative control are we talking about? (for example, things are different if you can put a firewall between the two users, or if you can install a firewall on Machine1, ... etc).


one possibility is to disconnect user1 from time to time and tell him that he used all the bandwidth allocated for his usage. but if user2 usage doesn't cause you trouble, the simplest solution is to let him connect...
