Question on INPUT and PREROUTING chains

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a Linux box used as NAT server and firewall. All requests on its port
80 are forwarded to a local webserver inside my network. I want to block
access to all services including http from a specific external host.

I'm using the following rule to block the host

iptables -A INPUT -i $extint -s $hostip -j DROP

and this one to do the NAT

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d $extip -j DNAT --to
$webserverip:80

The problem is that the host is blocked from accessing all services but
http. I've already checked if there are any rules before that ACCEPT the
request. It seems that prerouted packets are bypassing the INPUT chain.

Is it correct? If not, what am I doing wrong?

TIA

Carlos Façanha
