I don't think samba or the printer have anything to do with ipchains... ie My

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...
