Hi everybody,
I set up rules for a masq firewall, but the talk stopped working afterwards
with the ${SUBJECT} nice little message.
I figured out that the problem was that I started out this way:
ipchains -P input DENY
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -P output DENY
If I have both input and output denied, talk doesn't work on localhost anymore.
Alright, I tried to accept everything from the localhost:
ipchains -A input -s 127.0.0.0/8 -d 0/0 -i lo -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A output -s 127.0.0.0/8 -d 0/0 -i lo -j ACCEPT
(And a few more tryings similar to this, with no luck)
But this is not enough. What else is needed so that everything gets denied from
eth0 and eth1, and nothing from lo? I hate talkd:-(.
Thanks, Ferenc
