Thats correct, try these rule instead.
iptables -P INPUT DROP
# The default reject(icmp-port-unreachable) will have scanners report the
port as filtered, this will make it look closed.
iptables -p TCP -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset
iptables -p UDP -j REJECT
# I don't know the rules for ICMP, my guess would be that each type of
ICMP would have a diffrent responce. Maby just droping all ICMP would be
best.
I make no clams to these rules thay may or may not cause harm and or your
hardrive to melt.
