questions on iptables



Hello,

I have setup the following iptables on linux server,

sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -F
sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s 127.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT
sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s xx.xx.xx.xx -j ACCEPT  # my server public IP
sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
sudo /usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -j DROP

These rules work for incoming connections.
But if I made a request from this server box to the external server, such as rsync to another remote server, it won't work.

So how can I set up the outgoing rules as well?

Thanks and happy holidays~

Piper
