Message-ID: <COL002-W881A56C786C9972B7654E3F3830@phx.gbl> Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2012 17:04:56 -0400 From: Chad Gray <chad938@...mail.com> To: "netdev@...r.kernel.org" <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Netfilter lacks ability to filter packets via Application-origin Users need the ability for Linux firewall to filter packets based on what Application they are originating from. This ability is present in Mac and Windows firewalls, but not Linux. For example, users would like ability to open Port 80 for Firefox, but keep Port 80 closed for other applications. This ability enhances Privacy & Security of the user but also helps to better inform the user about the comings and goings of internet traffic and what application/s are causing the traffic. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47531 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
