MoBlock

• Homepage: http://moblock.berlios.de/
• To make on openSUSE: http://forums.phoenixlabs.org/showthread.php?t=16461
  • Need package: libnetfilter_queue-0.0.15.tar.bz2, libnfnetlink-0.0.33.tar.bz2.

iplist

• iplist is a list based packet handler which uses the netfilter netlink-queue library (kernel 2.6.14 or later). It filters by IP-address and is optimized for thousands of IP-address ranges. It is an alternative to MoBlock.

Installation

• Download required netfilter packages from Netfilter page
  • libnfnetlink
  • libnetfilter_queue
• Download iplist from IPList page. There is openSUSE prebuilt RPMs.
  • iplist-0.22-0.suse11.i586.rpm
  • Other versions
• First build libnfnetlink:

tar -xvfj libnfnetlink-0.0.39.tar.bz2
cd libnfnetlink-0.0.39
./configure --prefix=/usr              # install libs in /usr/lib instead of /usr/local/lib
make
sudo make install

• Then build libnetfilter_queue:

tar -xvfj libnetfilter_queue-0.0.16.tar.bz2
cd libnetfilter_queue-0.0.16
./configure --prefix=/usr              # install libs in /usr/lib instead of /usr/local/lib
make
sudo make install

• Finally, install iplist, but ignore dependencies:

sudo rpm -ivh --nodeps iplist-0.22-0.suse11.i586.rpm

Usage

• Type sudo ipblock -g to start the GUI. At first boot, it will creates the rc.d entry.
• Configuration file is at /etc/ipblock.conf. All lists URL is at ipblock.list.

Netfilter

• Homepage
• Used by other filtering application above (usually libnfnetlink, and libnetfilter_queue)
• ipset is an alternative to iplist but requires more hand works.
