Unfortunately the two machines that are to not have internet access are W98 boxes... interesting thing though... I called both Netgear and Linksys and both said none of their broadband routers filter by MAC or IP... I found that hard to believe and contacted my ISP... A guy their said hogwash... he's going to show me how do to it on a netgear FVS318 -----Original Message----- From: Lee Burleson [mailto:lburleso () hotmail com] Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2003 11:44 AM To: danf () clearnetwork com Cc: hometeam () goeaston net Subject: Re: FW: block internet at two workstations [security-basics-return-19403-danf=clearnetwork.com () securityfocus com in Pass-Through List] That was a good suggestion, IMO. If the security is set up properly on the workstations, the users should not have permissions to modify the default gateway or set static routes. However if, for some reason, you have a proxy server that is on the local network, the user would still be able to point the browser at it and be home free. To solve this, you would set permanant static routes that nullify that kind of access. Again, user privliges will not allow modification of your changes. Heck, if you don't have local resources that the machines need to access, you could just disable the NIC! Or even remove it! - Lee

The client wants
to
block internet access at two workstations. I don't see anything available within the firewall documentation/configuration that would address this. What is the best and easiest way to do this ...easy
and
best may be a contradiction :-) TIA Tim
