Try: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 199.224.86.15 --dport 53 -j ACCEPT or iptables -A INPUT -s 199.224.86.15 -d any --dport 53 -j ACCEPT or iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 199.224.86.15 -d any --dport 53 -j ACCEPT One of those should work. I think the first one will ; you need to specify the protocol (tcp/udp) when defining ports. t -- PGP key : http://n12turbo.com/tarragon/public.key
