Diskless and Firewall

[Khaled Hussein <khaled@bisan.com>]

Dear All, 

I am running a machine with diskless boot, it is running CentOS, i have
problem with iptables, when i restart iptables i lost connection with
NFS server so i lost my hard disks and machine become unreachable, this
happened when i use DROP as default policy on INPUT and OUTPUT and
FORWARD chains, i tried to use mangle table with default ACCEPT on these
chains but the same, if i changed default policy to ACCEPT on above
chains, so is there any way to avoid this problem

Thanks to all
