      You could probably use squid with a transparent filter. Then set it up to block everything and setup a custom error page.

        what i realized I also have to do that only for spesific range of IP addreeses or at least for 1 by 1 IP as some users still should be allowed ato access web.

        How do I use squid? I dont think its default package… im running on embedded board so wont be able to install any addons

          Depending on what your using for DNS you could just setup a fake DNS that just returns your server for all DNS queries.

              Yes, unless you manually set a normal DNS server on the machines that you want to have access.

                  I would give captive portal a try.  I haven't used it but I think you could set the portal page as your "Access to the internet is denied." page and use MAC pass-through for those clients who should receive internet access.

                    good try :((((
                    but captive portal is alredy in use for those who are allowed to get outside…
                    Ideally there should be option in captive portal for blockiing and redirecting traffic based on mac address, just like Dlink hotspot does that... but i guess for that I either have to do my own mod to CP script ( its actually easy fix) and then submit it to monowall and if they include that then it will go here to.

                    but i dont wanna do custom images anymore...

                      If you're already using the captive portal, why not just have your logon page say that Internet access isn't allowed without a valid username/password?

                      I also think if you make a change, you should probably submit it to pfSense, not MonoWall. These releases aren't based off of what monowall is doing. :-\

                        as to CP its code is identical copy of monowall
                        CP doesn not solve problem for me as users can get Username and Password bery easy,,.. example shared password. I can allow only one seesion but thta still is not secure enougph

                        If i would have radius V2 then i can block spesific mac address but im runing 1.4 and there is bug there and we can not upgrade to v2 caz MySQL structure needs to be changed and we can not touch it :(

                          Well if security is a concern, mac-based filtering can be spoofed pretty easily.

                          Is it possible to require the valid clients to connect to a VPN for internet access?

                            well mac address can be spoofed if you know the right mac address =)
                            unfortunantly we dont use VPN (but maybe we might want to establish one)

                              Yeah, even if it's just for local use, it's a quick way to have a completely different firewall policy apply to various clients that share the same network.

                                but no explanation screen :(
