If I don''t put in that ACCEPT rule I get firewall blocking errors in
dmesg.

Sorry, I can''t understand how that fits.

Right now almost everything in my systems is failing.  Hard drive in laptop
going out;  running remote X apps doesn''t work on HTPC;  camera app
doesn''t work on backup server;  my phone quit;  download of Debian is
so slow it''s going to take 12 hours;  and this is my only day off.
It''s hard to think at this point.
