Subject: ipt_owner and ICMP
Date: Sat, 18 Mar 2006 18:34:40 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <004801c64aba$9e81b170$0301a8c0@asp> (raw)

Hi,

I'm currently using the ipt_owner module to enforce stronger outgoing packet
filtering on certain daemons. I create a custom chain with the stronger
rules and use '-m owner' to jump packets into the chain.

This works fine for UDP and TCP, but my outgoing ICMP packets never match
the rule. I understand why incoming ICMP should fail to match, but why are
outgoing packets missing the filter?

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
acctboth   all  --  anywhere             anywhere
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere
apache-output  all  --  anywhere             anywhere            OWNER UID
match
 iptest

Chain apache-output (1 references)
target     prot opt source               destination
DROP       icmp --  anywhere             anywhere

(nothing in the acctboth chain causes a jump)

Any ideas?
