Opps !! HELLLLLLLLPPPPPP !!! iptables and a clingon
HELP !!!!
I was experimenting with firewall scripts, one of which was mason, the one
that as you use the internet it generates rules. I have since deleted all
these scripts, read up about iptables and am happy to DIY !!!
HOWEVER a bit of mason still seems to be hanging on ....
when I connect with iptables -L showing accept on everything, (I know this is
SO insecure, but bear with me ...)
all is OK, when I use a web browser, mail etc
iptables -L starts comeing up with rules, I didnt put them there, I think it
must be mason.
However the rules are no good and block my dial on demand link the next time
I wnat to use it
I have to
/etc/init.d/iptables reload
to clear iptables -L to accept, then its OK till I use the web !!!
I have tried everything, re-load mason, purge it etc etc
>From now on no more flashy scripts, good old text config files for me .....
Any advice on how to unscrew my system greatly appreciated ..
