I tried the following and got an error

suggested rule:

/sbin/ipchains -A input --dport 7001 -j ACCEPT

Error result:

/sbin/ipchains: can only specify ports for icmp, tcp or udp

The following is what I am seeing in my log files.  (note that there
rejections apply to port 27015) another port I'm trying to use.

I have also tried just adding the following rule manually

/sbin/ipchains -A input -p udp --dport 27015 -j ACCEPT

and

/sbin/ipchains -A input -p udp -i eth0 -d 24.15.142.51 27015 -j ACCEPT

they were accepted without error, but they didn't seem to stop the
rejections.

thanks
