ipchains question



Hello all,

i have a little question about ipchains.
Does it make sense to block all incoming packets with the syn bit set
through
ipchains -A input -d $localhost 1025:65535 -y -p tcp -i ippp0  -j DENY ?
Or will this hurt some non harmful connections too?
Another question about this:
What applications usually try to open a connection from outside?
Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Matthias
