Actually Stephen is correct. Of all the iptables GUI or
configurator applications Shorewall was the worst. It took me 30 mins
after the first time of installing MDK9 was i able to figure out what the hell
was going on with my box...not able to get out of the local box. I
remember that Shorewall was a firewall using IP Tables. I listed the
current rules of iptables "iptables -L" and it listed a crap load of them by
default from shorewall. I disabled shorewall and i was able to connect
just normal.
So on
your understanding of what Stephen stated that it was "dont use linux" is
totally misunderstood. Reread his message. It stated "dont use
shorewall"....did it say anything about dont use "linux"????...NO IT DID
NOT.
You
asked what the solution was....he simply stated "dont use
shorewall".
I
agree with Stephen. Dont use Shorewall....not linux just
shorewall.

Subject: [newbie] IPTABLES rules for Direct Connect ?
you advice is not very constructive. Sounds like: dont use LINUX, do not use LINUX, etc.
Doesn't matter is it SHOREWALL or else, the key is the IPTABLES, oll others just cosmetics. Now I see, original subject was misleading. The right would be " IPTABLES rules for Direct Connect".
Best regards... Bela
