Hey Mel,

First of all, its good that you have figured a way to block torrents using iptables. I am new to networking and would like to do couple of things.

1) Monitor the network activity in the home network

2) Block all the torrents from downloading.

Is there a tool or a way in linux which could give me some solutions to meet the above mentioned cases. I dont want to use any commercial programs as I am more towards OpenSource. It would be greatful if you could offer me some help.

Thanks,

Abhi

Mel, I’ve been unsuccessful at installing citrix receiver on a 64 bit fedora install.
Eventhough I am following your instructions to the T.

Can you provide guidance via email?
