Hi,
 
I have some questions about ebtables:
 
- Does ebtables only works in bridge-firewalls or can it also work in a
linux box serving as gateway for a LAN? 
- Can I filter IPX and Netbeui with ebtables on this network layout?
 
I need to filter Windows file sharing between networks. Currently I have
some iptables rules to drop TCP/UDP packets for ports related to Netbeui but
I read somewhere that Windows uses Netbeui/IPX when IP is not available. Any
ideas regarding this?
 
Thanks for your help!
 
Edo
