I know you have cut away a lot of rules, but maybe that just makes things more confusing. Try to nest your rules in the following order: direction - interface - protocol - src net - dst net - port/type You should need no "out" rules if you have "in" rules with keep state. At each branch level make a catchup rule at the end with default action and "quick" key word to make sure packets don't spill over and get matched by other rules. Hopefully this will help you pin down where things go wrong. Cheers, Erik -- Erik Nørgaard Ph: +34.666334818 http://www.locolomo.org
