Iptables problem

[Glenn Hancock <ghancock@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have the following setup in my /etc/sysconfig/iptables file.  I start the iptables service and do a --list and see all my rules.  I can attach to the computer from outside so I know that the incoming rules work, however, I can not perform any outgoing tasks.  No pings, no ssh no nothing.

Can someone please explain why this is not working?

*filter
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 110 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 42 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7777 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7775 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 --syn -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p udp --dport 42 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --syn -j REJECT
-A INPUT -p udp -j REJECT
COMMIT


Thanks,
