Hello all,

I have been trying to write a program for dynamic addition of rules to
iptables. I have been able to add a rule with a specific target, but i have
not been able to figure out how to add a match(MAC address) to the rule.

Pls let me know how to do this if anyone knows the trick
iptables -m mac --help (this will show you)

As long as you have these extensions compiled either in the kernel or as a 
module. Also, make sure you have the patches as there was a problem with the 
MAC match module last year.

Thanx in advance
