Antony Ahh...I see. I've added the following to take care of the ident packets: -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --sport 113 -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 113 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT Still getting dropped port 80 packets though: Jul 20 12:23:40 squidbox kernel: drop-n-log:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=192.168.1.5 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=54027 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43972 DPT=80 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Jul 20 12:25:14 squidbox kernel: drop-n-log:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=192.168.1.5 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=54027 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43972 DPT=80 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Jul 20 12:25:41 squidbox kernel: drop-n-log:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=192.168.1.5 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=54027 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43973 DPT=80 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Jul 20 12:26:27 squidbox last message repeated 4 times Jul 20 12:27:15 squidbox kernel: drop-n-log:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=192.168.1.5 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=54027 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43973 DPT=80 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Jul 20 12:27:24 squidbox kernel: drop-n-log:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=192.168.1.5 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=30836 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43974 DPT=80 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Do I have not my rules in the correct order?
