domains on linux

[Andrew G. Hammond]

You have to patch in the iptables string module and then match against 
HTTP queries on port 80. Very effective at blocking L3 scanners. I'm 
hoping they'll include the string module in 2.6 after it gets outa 
feature freeze. There was a recent LJ article about blocking KaZaA that 
demonstrates the use of that module rather well.
