iptables help

[Paul <pardel@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

I got a funny situation when using iptables. Start with a clean sheet:
# iptables --list
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

I'm adding INPUT ACCEPT's for loopback, local interface, local
machines and the machine I'm connection from:
# iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -s x.com -d y.com -j ACCEPT
# iptables --list
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere
ACCEPT     all  --  192.168.1.0/24       anywhere
ACCEPT     all  --  x.com                y.com

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

And, I'm setting the INPUT policy to DROP:
# iptables -P INPUT DROP

Now if I try a
# iptables --list
the output comes one line at a time and with big delays.

Am I missing something?

Thank you,
Paul
