Hello /dev/rob0, ok. I modify the rule >> iptables -I FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -m state >> --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT in >> iptables -I FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -d 192.168.50.0/24 -m state >> --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT and this don't work... [23/Jun/2005 16:00:34] "Network" action = 'denied', descr = 'Unopened port', proto = 6, laddr = 192.168.50.101, raddr = 217.132.77.214, lport = 2276, rport = 4662, direc = 'in', ruleId = 0, proc = 'N/A' Q. why rule don't work ? Q. why this packages with flag ESTABLISHED come to me?
