Hi, I'm using a debian woody box as my gateway at home, It has a network card for the local network (eth0) and a internal ADSL card for the internet connection (ppp0)
Everything was forking fine for the 2 years untill a few months ago someting happend.
The gateway still working fine and I can full access to the internet from any computer on the network, except fom it. I mean, if I log in to it (SSH2) I can't PING anything, on the local network or on the internet, even using the IP addreses.
i'm not an expert in linux, but i've been using it for a few years. I think is something related to the routes, but I don't know nothing about it.
So here is the output of my route command:
xavier:~# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
62.241.161.247 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
localnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default 62.241.161.247 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0
Chain STATE (0 references)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state NEW
LD all -- anywhere anywhere
Iptables, definitely Unfortunately I have problems reading the output (iptables -L). I'm interested in the part of the script dealing with OUTPUT chain. If it's not too long, please copy it.
According to this listing it seems as though your firewall lets just about anything through, except for malformed packets.
To have a closer look at the fancy settings it would nice with a listing from
