hi all i have configured ipchains on my linux 7.1 box. the 3 rules (in order) do the following 1> accept src 0.0.0.0/0 port * dst hostA port 22 2> accept src hostA port 22 dst 0.0.0.0/0 port * 3> deny src 0.0.0.0/0 port * dst 0.0.0.0/0 port * I intend to allow ssh on hostA, and deny everything else. It works but it takes too long for the connection to establish even when = I am doing ssh from hostA to hostA itself. I wonder why? Suggestions? Aman
