Re: My firewall issues
I have a firewall running Mandrake SNF which connects to the internet via a dialup connection and connects to three other boxes, one vista, one mandrake 2006, and one mandrake 2007, thru a four port hub. Need any more info? I am not a genius here, but I know a little bit about this internal network of ours.

Re: My firewall issues
All the systems have been restarted since the phone line was repaired. The iptables command is not found on the firewall system. SNF stands for Single Network Firewall. I am not sure how it gets the rules.

Re: My firewall issues
if you're not root, then you would have to have the full path, /sbin/iptables -L -n Sounds as though 'Single Network Firewall' is a specialized setup which probably has its own management tools of which I know nothing about.

Re: My firewall issues
Thank you Craig! Just talking about the situation made me start rambling around the SNF menus and I found a way to set the addresses of the internal network to be acceptible as sources. At least now I can browse the web and even find out how much Grampa John is lying about himself and his opponent. See! Sometimes just talking about a problem, even if it is only on a discussion list, jars something deep in the grey matter and allows the problem to be solved!
