Also, add a LOG rule at the end of the ruleset so you can see any other packets which are trying to get in, but are getting DROPped by the default policy - if, as you say, the problem doesn't occur when you don't run the ruleset, there must be something being DROPped which would solve the problem if you ACCEPTed it. > >i dont know what is the udp port 80 for but i just saw its traffic on my > >network in iptraf so i included it in my script That doesn't like a secure reason to allow it to me - and I have no idea what could be using UDP port 80 - I think you should investigate further rather than just assume it's desirable.
