If ports are reported /closed/ using a standard port scanner such as nmap, then they sent back a RST to your initial SYN. That means your firewall is OK to let packets go in and out for theses ports, but there's no application listening on them... You should start your daemons. BTW, your ruleset just does the job, as packet/bytes couters shows. -- http://www.netexit.com/~sid/ PGP KeyID: 157E98EE FingerPrint: FA62226DA9E72FA8AECAA240008B480E157E98EE >> Hi!
