I'm wondering about the functioning of IPTables on my LM8 install.

I have two ethernet cards: eth0 is external and eth1 is internal.

Using nmap, I get:

� �[root@mozart root]# nmap -sT <my external IP>:
� �6000/tcp � open � � � �X11

among other entries. When I do:

� �iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 6000 -i eth0 -j DROP

the command is accepted, but nmap still shows port 6000 as being open. Any
idea what's going on?
