From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Glenn Hancock Subject: iptables question Date: 13 Aug 2003 16:49:58 -0400 Sender: netfilter-admin@lists.netfilter.org Message-ID: <1060807798.4082.8.camel@localhost.localdomain> Reply-To: ghancock@softeksoftware.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="=-vPIxFra1LAjT4afc0acZ" Return-path: Errors-To: netfilter-admin@lists.netfilter.org List-Help: List-Post: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: To: netfilter@lists.netfilter.org --=-vPIxFra1LAjT4afc0acZ Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have my rules setup the way I would guess they should be based on 5 tutorials, 1 book and the man pages. However, I still can't seem to get the thing to do what I want. Could someone please help me? I will make this very simple: 1) I want to allow all incoming requests to port 80 2) I want to allow all outgoing requests .... period. I want to drop all other incoming requests not addressed to port 80. Thats it. I've been fighting with this all day and still can't get it to act right. If you like I can send my current iptables file but its basically the same as the earlier one I sent. P.S. I'm sorry if someone has already answered my question. I was having a little trouble with my email before... As long as you reply to the list group I should get any further emails without a problem.
