Hi,

Not sure to understand what exactly you are after.

Do you want to write a script that reads every IP address from the data file and configure a rule in the ipfilter/iptables subsystem so that the kernel rejects/drop every packet having anyone of them as the origin IP address?

Is that your concern?
If yes, you will do better if you edit the /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2.

You can do it by hand, or better yet, via Yast, module firewall.

By the way, the right place for network kind of problems is
Network/Internet forum.

Hope this helps.

Regards.
