Hi, A week ago I put a dedicated server on the internet. 2 days ago a hacker got into my system and caused many problems through a security flaw in the version of SSH I am running. Last night he tried again, however I locked the machine down so even I couldn't get into it, and he had no success. I have now changed over to giptables (which is great) but I have a few problems. If I connect to my server, run the firewall, everything is ok. I can look at webpages, SSH, etc from my home system. If I shutdown my home system, and re-dial to the net, the firewall blocks eveything! I can't even ping my server. My parents computer can't access my server either. This is very frustrating, can anybody please help me here. I suspect that DNS is being blocked? I have attached my firewall script. If anyone could give me some guidance I'd be very grateful.
