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 have to run a client that sends authentication packets to the gateway. On the server side, the gateway associates user ids to packets, thus enabling the possibility to filter packets on a user basis. Furthermore, the server architecture is done to use external authentication source such as an LDAP server.
