You can match the protocol on ICMP packets with -p icmp and let the port- specific stuff out of it, as ICMP doesn't uses portnumbers. But the problem will be, that your external machine won't be reachable for icmp packets. (as every icmp packets will get forwarded) It may be ennoying if MTU or ping packets doesn't reach anymore your machine. That depends on the usage of your gateway. > > Thank you, > HK -- Christoph Paasch www.rollerbulls.be -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
