[ILUG] iptables rule

[Shinners, Eamonn]

Thanks guys. I figured that should allow all traffic out. It's not specific to freshclam, tried links as well, but no joy connecting to anything.

	Regards,

Well you have this in the output which should handle everything?
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere
The associated packets comming back in should be handled by
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere           state 
RELATED,ESTABLISHED

So I don't know what wrong. Can you telnet out
to port 80 somewhere to verify it's not something
specific to freshclam?
