Hello. I have a rule set and I want to disable the acces of my server to some ips (they are "request flooding" me, and it's just a temporary rejection, just to give me the time to set up the scaling of the server) - I have the policy rules at the beginning (they DROP all by default) - then I have the allowing rules for the port 80 TCP (web server) - then allow ssh for all (dynamic IP at the admin's home) - then follows the rectrivtion, I rejects the IPs I want to reject on all ports. Is that the right steps? or should I reject them _before_ allowing 80 TCP for all? It's iptables 1.2.10 and 1.2.11 Thank you for all. -- ASPO Infogérance http://aspo.rktmb.org/activites/infogerance Unofficial FAQ fcolc http://faq.fcolc.eu.org/ LUG sur Orléans et alentours (France).
