IP filtering

Rommel T. Misa_2 — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 08:53:39 GMT

Hi all,

I want to allow a specific IP range to access my server and deny everyone else. I read that IPFilter can be used to do this. Which files should I tweak to achieve this?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can also give access/deny through /var/adm/inetd.sec /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files.

IPFilter admin guide is here.

Hi,

IPFilter configuration file would be /etc/opt/ipf/ipf.conf.

See here for more details..
