MAC-based acces restriction
We have a server on Suse Linux 8.2 set up to share the internet acces to the whole acces. I want to filter some users out by only allowing specific users to acces the internet (using the mac of the network card) but i couldn't do it, could anybody help me? Maybe even point me to a how-to/tutorial?
