ping not resolving names - iptables
I am using iptables and i was able to setup the chains to accept pings (icmp), i set the same rule for the output as the input "-A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT" "-A OUTPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT" but am still not able to resolve names on the box. I can ping everything by ip address but not name. when i shut down the iptables service i can ping everything by name so this leads me to believe that it's a iptables config issuse. what needs to be opened for pings to resovle?
