When I try to turn firewalling on, I'm having long DNS delays, and reports
like this in my logfile

Feb 21 17:41:53 stravinsky kernel: Packet log: input DENY ppp0 PROTO=17 
129.78.###.###:65535 129.78.###.###:65535 L=28 S=0x00 I=19120 F=0x4022 T=252 (#17) 
(with actual IP addresses #ed)

But ipchains -L reports

ACCEPT     udp  ------  anywhere             anywhere              65535 ->   65535
ACCEPT     tcp  ------  anywhere             anywhere              65535 ->   65535

and the script I'm using to set up the firewalling has the rules

ipchains -A input -p udp -s $ANY domain -d $ANY 1024:65535 -i ppp0 -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A input -p udp -s $ANY domain -d $ANY domain -i ppp0 -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A input -p udp -s $ANY 1024:65535 -d $ANY domain -i ppp0 -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A input -p udp -s $ANY 65535 -d $ANY 65535 -i ppp0 -j ACCEPT

(These started off more restrictive, but I've been loosening them to try
to get this to work.)

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Danny.
