I installed Mandrake 9.0 on a server box I'm putting together, I installed the firewall shorewall. Couldn't connect to the ssh server or even ping the box (the inability to ping it, I assumed was the result of shorewall).
Reconnected monitor and keyboard to server, server couldn't ping any of the other computers (sendmsg not permitted) So I turned off shorewall and even removed it from startup, can now ping from the server to other computers but it cannot be pinged (even ping 127.0.0.1 doesn't work) or connected to using ssh (sshd is running) Any idea whats wrong? -- "I had a letter in the post today.
