dan;
yes, i can ping client to server and server to
client.
i looked at ipchains -L -n and the only source
other than 0.0.0.0/0 was 192.168.1.1
which is the ip address of the server and the
target was accept at ports 53 -> *.
the other accept was prot all source 0.0.0.0/0 and
ports n/a.
everything else had target of reject (tcp udp)
et.al.
chain forward policy is accept
chain output policy is accept
now to be honest with you, i haven't much of a clue
what the above means. hopefully, you do.
any more help muchly appreciated.
