  • For what purpose? What port/protocol, what are they trying to access. What are you trying to do that isn't covered in the shorewall docs?

  • @Zoredache lets make it simple, say you own a site, you installed shorewall, but you want to give ssh access to the ip of your friend, you can do that but what you do if he has many ips, how to accept 64.240.xxx.x to 64.240.xxx.x you can't add them manually, coz there are too many, i hope you understand the question better now

  • @Zoredache it's basically how to accept ssh access from certain ips if they are too many, can u specify an interval?

Use the shorewall show capabilities and see if your kernel was compiled with the iprange support.

If it doesn't have that kind of support, then just enter your rules as a CIDR style network definition. So 64.240.160.0/23 == 64.240.160.0 to 64.240.191.255.
