Hi all

Today I feel bad, I am fighting to ban internet buse, kazaa emule etc, in my Server SME6.5RC1 that is doing a great job, always will thank the bunch Off peoples that are making this possible.

Today I install a Dungog contrib.: dungog-bandwidth-limiting.

And I got a e-mail that bounced like this:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at laboratorio-led.com.ar.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

Giving up on 144.138.57.42.

install at dungog.net was a feature we used for a few months a few years ago in non-gpl rpms, it was to help identify which rpms were being used the most, some people didn't like it so it was removed, and as you can see from the bounce no information is accepted.

Any rpm that sends an email is very out of date

bandwidth-limiting only alters squid.conf so it is of no use against p2p software

Have you tried to shut down the ports these apps work through?
Kill everyting but http, https, ftp (if using),smtp and pop.

[girkers]

Whilst closing ports is a good idea, but if you have some idea of what you are doing, most of the P2P software allows you to modify the port that it uses.

I have recently been formalizing my knowledge at college and one of the facilitators had asked me to look into FTWALL (http://www.lowth.com/p2pwall/ftwall/) which plugs into iptables (from memory). Not sure if it has been tested on SME as yet but has promise.
