IIRC there is indeed a TIME option in iptables but i never used it. > or do I have to let cron bring down the firewall, > rewrite the config-file of iptables en restart the firewall again or do > I have more simple and more efficient methods to accomplish this. No need to completely drop your firewall or to rewrite your configs as you can "insert" and "delete" specific rules from the running system. One example: assuming eth0=LAN # list INPUT chain root@mhfw01:~ >iptables -L INPUT Chain INPUT (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- mhfw01 anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0 anywhere in_eth0 all -- 192.168.5.0/24 anywhere in_eth1 all -- 192.168.1.0/24 anywhere in_adsl all -- !192.168.5.0/24 anywhere LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning prefix `*INPUT* ' root@mhfw01:~ > # Now i drop a single IP in the running firewall by "inserting" a rule # into the INPUT chain: root@mhfw01:~ >iptables -I INPUT -i eth0 -s 192.168.5.16 -j DROP root@mhfw01:~ >iptables -L INPUT Chain INPUT (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination DROP all -- 192.168.5.16 anywhere ACCEPT all -- mhfw01 anywhere ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0 anywhere in_eth0 all -- 192.168.5.0/24 anywhere in_eth1 all -- 192.168.1.0/24 anywhere in_adsl all -- !192.168.5.0/24 anywhere LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning prefix `*INPUT* ' root@mhfw01:~ > As you can see the new rule has been inserted at the top of the input chain.

This was just an example. You'll need a rule that checks for destination address != $local_address_range or you'll drop *any* access to your gateway.
