Hello,
Your problem is very simple:
-s and -d parametres requires IP address(/netmask) or Host Name while
you use ethernet device.
e.g. eth0, eth1, xl0 and etc. are the available ethernet devices as
shown when you issue ifconfig at the shell prompt.
IPv4 Address is 192.168.0.0 10.0.0.1 and etc.
Hostname is www.netfilter.org.
In other words use -s (source IP) and -d (destination IP) with IP adress
or hostname but -o (output device) and -i (input device) with eth0 and
the other devices.
Your rules must look like the following:
eth0_ip_address="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
iptables -A OUPUT -o eth0 -p tcp \
-s $eth0_ip_address --sport 1024:65535 \
--dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp \
--sport 80 \
-d $eth0_ip_address --dport 1024:65535 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p udp \
-s 122.xx.xxx.xx --sport 67 \
--dport 68 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -p udp \
-s $eth0_ip_address --sport 68 \
-d 122.xx.xxx.xx --dport 67 -j ACCEPT
Regards ;)
