This, strictly speaking, isn't a Fedora problem, but I'm hoping someone out there can help.

system config:
dell poweredge 2950
kernel: 2.6.22.9-61.fc6
apache: 2.2.6

problem summary: when iptables is turned on, web pages (graphics in particular) served up from the box are *extremely* slow to load, sometimes timing out. when iptables is turned off, web pages served up from the box load normally. I've compared my /etc/sysconfig/iptables file to another (fc6) server and they are effectively the same, *but* I've never had a problem with page loads from the other box.

I'm assuming (yes, I know 8^) that the problem lies with iptables, but I'm running out of places to look for answers. Should I be looking somewhere other than the firewall? Has anyone else seen this? I'd really appreciate any help anyone out there could give.

...ok I did manually edit the file to add the http rule, but up until now I've not had any problems doing that sort of thing. Iptables does drive me just a bit crazy, but I do know enough to to that successfully (up until now that is). Help! ...and thanks!

Do you need to open domain?
