    The first "public" release of the P2PWall project is now available for
    download under the terms of the GPL.

    URL is: http://p2pwall.sourceforge.net

    The "ftwall" component of this project is the first working module, and
    allows iptables-based linux firewalls to block traffic from "Kazaa" and
    other "FastTrack" clients including iMesh and Grokster.

    Work on other P2P protocols will start shortly. Mail me if you'd like to be
    involved.

    Please use the project forums for communications regarding this software.
    The author will not respond to direct e-mails unless about project
    involvement, funding or licensing.

    Links to the forums can be found at the bottom of the ftwall component's web
    page.

    Happy hunting!

    Chris Lowth
