Dear,

Wana tried to block only traffic from a perticular host. Moreover I tried with -REJECT option also.........but no help

Before moving any further you got to tell us; about the way you have right now configured your box to allow your users to access internet. Are you directly forwarding packets from clients over to internet or have you installed squid ?
