Hi,
Whenever I implement an iptables firewall (default policy DROP), I can't
seem to scan the system's ports through nmap using just the default
command ("nmap host"). What's the correct nmap commandline to be able
to portscan an iptables-enabled box?
Also, what's the explanation behind this? No need for very specific
details, just a bit of a summry will suffice.
TIA!
