firewall whoes

["Jerry M. Howell II" <jmhowell@jmhowell.com>]

I am curently searching the archives and google, if there is a solution
posted I must be overlooking it. My curent situation is I have some aol,
compuserve customers. The moment I enable the firewall they are unable
to connect. My question is what do I need to enable to allow aol and cs
customers to reach me through my firewall? here is the firewall. I
comented out some of the lines till I can figure out how to help our
clients connect to us.

#!/bin/bash
#
# This is a sample firewall for ip_tables, the tool for doing
firewalling
# and masquerading under the 2.3.x/2.4.x series of kernels.
#
# Be warned, this is a very restrictive set of firewall rules (and they
# should be, for proper security). Anything that you do not
_specifically_
# allow is logged and dropped into /dev/null, so if you're wondering why
# something isn't working, check /var/log/messages.
#
# This is about as close as you get to a 'secure' firewall. It's nasty,
# it's harsh, and it will make your machine nearly invisible to the rest
# of the internet world. Have fun.
#
# To run this script you must 'chmod 700 iptables-script' and then
execute
# it. To stop it from running, run 'iptables -F'

#Point this to your copy of ip_tables
IPT="/usr/local/sbin/iptables"

#Load the module.
/sbin/modprobe ip_tables

#Flush old rules, delete the firewall chain if it exists
$IPT -F
$IPT -F -t nat
$IPT -X firewall

# Drop all packets from spamers
