I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't understand your question.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, are in my top 10

thanks jefro
my question is if I pass the command to ip forward simply then every ip packet will pass.I want only one ip address to pass from my squid proxy to internet only on SMTP and IMAP(both have same ip address) ports.in result all computers on my network can access their emails only.


regards
