I have a situation where I want to allow only certain hosts on a LAN
external access. Can any of you think of a handy way of doing that in
shorewall? Clearly I can create rules for each allowed host, but that
would be longwinded. Unfortunately, the hosts are not contiguous so
that I could use a subnet range. I rather expect that I'm going to
have to generate individual rules per allowed host, but I just
thought I'd ask before going further.
