Hi Everybody,

I've been working on a webserver which has firewalling on it.
I really need to get ntpdate up and running, as the shop software uses date to confirm when something was ordered.
Now, when I try to do ntpdate ntp.pandora.be I get
no server suitable for synchronization found
When dropping the firewall everything's ok.
I have a kernel log on iptables and this give me the following output:
Dec 9 21:16:48 webserver kernel: UDP DROPIN=eth0 OUT= MAC=macaddress SRC=195.13.23.5 DST=192.168.0.74 LEN=76 TOS=0x00 TTL=52 PROTO=UDP SPT=123 DPT=123 LEN=56

I have opened input and output for udp port 123
Can anyone help me?
thx
Steve

Bearing in mind that iptables traverses the rules
in top -> bottom order? Is your allow 123 before
the generic UDP drop? :)


Cheers,
Tink

yes, that was the problem
thx for helping
put it after that rule and all is ok

Pleasure mate :} .... feel free to give me an affero
if it's not too much of a hassle ;)



Cheers,
Tink (pushy bastard - wants another gift from affero :})
