iptables

Hi,

When I start the iptable, connectivity goes of in my server. I need to stop the iptables via console to get the connectivity back.

Please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks,
Vidya

What distribution / version are you running?

What do you mean by connectivity? You need to allow the appropriate service in the firewall configuration tool or add a rule via iptables.

probably iptables by default blocks all the connections. You need to modify it before starting it again.

You could provide some information as to how you are trying to login i.e. ssh, telnet etc.

Just a stab in the dark here. Iptables default input chain policy is DROP. You need to have at least one accept policy in the chain for anything to happen. I'm guessing that you don't have any tables initialized.
