The icmp type is specified from the origins port number. So to block icmp timestamp requests from your internal network you should use:
ipchains -p icmp -s $INTIP/0 13 -i $INTIF -j DENY And to block icmp timestamp reply you should use: ipchains -p icmp -s 0.0.0.0/0 14 -i $EXTIF -j DENY Hope that helped. With best regards Johan.
