Hi,
Does this FORWARD chain look ok in a simple NAT network where the Linux
box is connected to the net.

Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target     prot opt source               destination
ACCEPT     all  --  0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0
ACCEPT     all  --  0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0          state
RELATED,ESTABLISHED
REJECT     tcp  --  192.168.10.1         0.0.0.0/0          tcp dpt:80
reject-with icmp-port-unreachable


Is source 0/0 OK? Should be be 192.168.10.0/24 ?
Will the third rule block outgoing connection from 192.168.10.1 to any
server at port 80?

Thanks a lot and eagerly waiting for the reply.
With warm regards,
-Payal
