I don't understand what the big problem is, am I missing something? Here's what you need to do: iptables -A INPUT -s SERVERA -p tcp --dport 1521 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s SERVERB -p tcp --dport 1521 -j ACCEPT <ADD OTHER RULES HERE> iptables -A INPUT -j DROP Regards, Geoff. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rohit khaladkar Sent: Tuesday, 7 April 2009 11:31 p.m. To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Need to block port 1521 for all machines except one. I can access the port from other machines too. There are two machines : Server A : Application Host Server B : Database server The requirement here is to have access to oracle database which uses port 1521 only to these two machines.So the rules should be such that 1521 should be blocked to all other servers EXCEPT for these two machines (Server A and Server B). Please let me know if you need anymore information. Appreciate all the help provided. Thanks!
