I don't think samba or the printer have anything to do with ipchains... ie My 
gateway box, samba server, printer server was doing the samba thing and 
printer server well before I got around to getting ipchains going...

So I don't know why it would shutdown the network?? Seems strange. Hope 
there's an expert out there :-)

I do have some questions tho as I'm real new to ipchains and stuff...

what does this line do? Just curious.

And why are there two identical lines here??? If I do an ipchains -L I just 
get the one line much like these - likewise I just have a simple gateway. I 
don't see why there are two lines?

Also what does the samba printer config look like? I assume you are printing 
from a win box? what linux is running on the gateway? I am running mdk 7.0 on 
the gateway and 7.2 on the workstations - which is giving me the shits...
