iptables-mldonkey help
i need some help configuring iptables..
i have a headless gentoo box that connects to the internet through eth1. through eth0 it's connected to this pc (it gets ip 192.168.0.150). i'm running mldonkey on the gentoo box and i connect to it using web interface. surprisingly i got it to work, but it seems that i get low id. i guess port forwarding is not ok. i have iptables currently configured like this: Code:

I notice that you are, for example, port forwarding tcp/4662 and also have a rule in your INPUT chain for ACCEPTing it. There may be other examples; I didn't analyze the whole thing. Once you port forward a packet, it is no longer available to the machine it came in on. So I would imagine one of these rules is wrong. If you are running the mldonkey client on the box with these firewall rules, do you want to be port forwarding at all?
Also, you might be able to add some rules using the LOG target (-j LOG) as an investigative tool to see what happens to packets the donkey server is sending you. I hope this helps. |
