I think you need to put the DROP into a FORWARD rule...OUTPUT chains (if I'm not mistaken) don't get used for destinations outside the Linux gateway (iptables box)

Alright guys, this might be a stupid question.

 

I just transitioned from IPCHAINS to IPTABLES and I'm trying to ban the computers in my network from reaching a webpage (ads.x10.com....the hated X10 ads!). The command I'm trying to use is as follows:

 

iptables -A OUTPUT -o ppp0 -d 63.211.210.20 -j DROP

 

It executes fine, HOWEVER I can still get to that webpage. Any help?

 

Thanks a lot.
