I am using Redhat 7.1 as a gateway for a PC home LAN. I'm using IPTABLES and David Ranch's rc.firewall-2.4-stronger firewall. I have Samba running on the Linux box. After some struggle to overcome general cluelessness, I have gotten most everything working. My MASQed machines can access the outside world and they can access the Linux box over Samba. My problem (I'm not even sure if it is a problem) is that I'm getting lots of packet logs that I don't understand, for example: Aug 10 17:45:25 cobra kernel: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:03:6c:4a:bc:54:08:00 SRC=12.242.19.34 DST=255.255.255.255 LEN=360 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=244 ID=57986 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=67 DPT=68 LEN=340 What does this mean? All the packets that are logged are from source port 67 and destination port 68, using UDP protocol. My ISP is ATT Broadband via cable modem and DHCP.
