Shorewall users - Aug 2003 - mail not receiving and port 226

Hi again,

I am coming closer that it is working for me. I encountered two problems 
still:

1. mail
I cannot send emails from the net to my mail server (fw)

#	Accept SMTP, POP3, IMAP, secure POP connections from the local network
#
ACCEPT		all		all		tcp	25
#ACCEPT		net		fw		tcp	25
ACCEPT		loc		fw		tcp	25,110,143,995

I tried first    net fw

2. I run on port 226 and IPv6 server
The server log says it delivers data to the client, but the browser does 
not get any data

#	Allow web access 80 226 (IPv6)
#
ACCEPT		all		all		tcp	80,226
#ACCEPT		loc		fw		tcp	80,226
#ACCEPT		net		fw		tcp	80,226
#ACCEPT		fw		loc		tcp	80,226
#ACCEPT		fw		net		tcp	80,226

If other files are need to be checked, they are all at

Port 80 works !!!

bye

Ronald

I''m off on vacation -- I see two problems:

a) You are adding ACCEPT rules wildly without understanding what problem
you are trying to solve. As a general principle, UNLESS SHOREWALL IS
LOGGING BLOCKED CONNECTIONS REQUESTS ADDING MORE RULES WON''T HELP SOLVE
A CONNECTION PROBLEM.

b) Using the routefilter option when you have multiple Internet
interfaces probably isn''t wise.
