Users / Limit to IP option in firewall settings
« on: January 21, 2008, 01:53:09 am »
I'm on beta2 right now (going to 3 in short order).  But I was curious as to what this option does.  The wiki says : You can limit rules to specific ip addresses.

My goal is to forward one port as securely as possible - I'd like to limit access to one specific IP address if possible.  I figured that the "Limit to IP" was the way to do that, so I specified it as the target ip.  With it set I was still able to see the port as open from IPs that weren't specified. ( www.grc.com ). 

Am I misunderstanding that option's purpose or do I have something misconfigured?
