Is there a peer guardian for linux?
« on: October 17, 2006, 04:10:30 PM »

Hi all,

I've seen a lot of news about companies like BayTSP snooping around at what's being shared, and have found a program called PeerGuardian from Phoenix Labs, but it only runs on windows.

Is there IP blocking software available for linux?
Will the next release of amule include IP blocking?

Regards,
Banjo.

amule already includes support for its own Ipfilter. Linux and *BSD also has packet filtering, read the
documentation. Phoenix Labs also links to http://moblock.berlios.de/ , which runs on GNU/LInux.
