NuFW - Filters packets on a per-user basis

'NuFW' is a set of daemons that filters packets on a per-user basis. The gateway authorizes a packet depending on which remote user has sent it. On the client side, users run a client that sends authentication packets to the gateway. On the server side, the gateway associates userids with packets, thus allowing the filtering of packets on a user basis. Furthermore, the server architecture uses as external authentication source such as an LDAP server.
