I have linux RH8 with kernel 2.4.20-28.8, iptables v1.2.8. I have setup a firewall with some tcp ports opened (21,25,80,110,443) for servers. Then I have ran a port scan and scanned all 65535 tcp and udp ports. I was suprised that 3 ports were opened even if I didn't opened them in the configuration. These ports are tcp 389,1002 and 1720. I have tried to block them manually by entering a drop command for these three ports but no success-they are still open. What am I missing here? Is this some problem with iptables? Sasa
