Hi!I am using Iptables on a RH 30 2.4 Kernel for INPUT connections filtering, while allowing all OUTPUT.Inbound connections seems to work fine, but outbound connections fail. Connection status is SYN_SENT on the SOURCE side and SYN_RECV at the destination side, shows that ACK packets are getting filtered at INPUT chain. Does not IPTABLES allow the return packets of a connection initiated already thru IPTABLES? Are there any rules to enable this apart from manually allowing return packets on port basis everytime.Best WishesPraneeth Samineni _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!
