User Class Permissions

Once upon a time a had plans to create a Known User Class.... This became a Zone Class... Well, now that's changing too. You know, my father always told me; "Keep it simple stupid"... but sometimes i forget (i guess that's the stupid acting up).

I am planning on changing the user classes to "Protected", "Liberated", "Trusted",
and "Super" users.



  1. Protected: Firewall allows traffic on 80, 443, and 110. Content filter enabled.

  2. Liberated: Firewall blocks traffic on 25, 10000, and [to
    be determined]. Content filter disabled.

  3. Trusted: Firewall disabled. Content filter disabled.

  4. Super: Given network priority, pre-empts traffic from other classes. Firewall disabled.
    Content filter disabled.


This should be more than enough control. Firewall rules can easily be tweaked
by adding a nocat.conf to a floppy disk and making it available to the ZoneCD
during boot.
