How do you add an ipchains rule to accept connections from
a given host (eg. www.xxx.yyy.zzz) on a specific port (eg. 3333) ?
I tried the following (www.xxx.yyy.zzz replacing the real IP
to protect the humiliated) :
# /sbin/ipchains -I input -p tcp -s www.xxx.yyy.zzz 3333 -j ACCEPT
But still the remote host (www.xxx.yyy.zzz) could not connect
on port 3333.
Here are my rather simple ipchains :
# /sbin/ipchains -L
Chain input (policy ACCEPT):
target prot opt source destination ports
ACCEPT tcp ------ www.xxx.yyy.zzz anywhere 3333 ->
any
ACCEPT tcp -y---- anywhere anywhere any ->
ssh
ACCEPT tcp -y---- anywhere anywhere any ->
http
ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a
ACCEPT udp ------ ns1.secure.net anywhere domain
-> any
REJECT tcp -y---- anywhere anywhere any ->
any
REJECT udp ------ anywhere anywhere any ->
any
Chain forward (policy ACCEPT):
Chain output (policy ACCEPT):
What am I missing here ?
Not sure if it's necessary but I also tried restarting ipchains :
[root womble sysconfig]# /sbin/service ipchains restart
Flushing all current rules and user defined chains: [ OK ]
Clearing all current rules and user defined chains: [ OK ]
Applying ipchains firewall rules: [ OK ]
But still no luck.
Thank you for any help.

ps. how do you specify where to insert a rule ? at the moment,
I'm just using "/sbin/ipchains -I input" and it inserts
the rule in the first position. Also, are ipchains zero-indexed
or does the first one have position "1". ?
