After migrating to centos 4, Im having a weird connection problem with online games, Planeshift and Anarchy Online. Im using my own firewall script, that was working fine before installing Centos. I disabled default firewall. Can somebody give me an idea about whats happening?

Without seeing your firewall configuration I doubt there is anything we can tell you...
Cheers, MaZe.

There was an iptables parameter that changed from the 2.4/centos3 days to the 2.6/centos4 days. For the life of me I can't remember what it was now, but Matt Hyclak or someone else is probably more familiar with it than I am. If it was a custom ruleset brought whole from a 2.4 based machine, I'd guess(having nothing else to go on) that it might be your issue.

Well, I started writing that scrip in the age of 2.4, but worked fine under 2.6 (I migrated from Fedora 2, that has a 2.6 kernel)

The parameter Jim is referring to is most likely the handling of which physical interface the packet arrived on (-m physdev in 2.6, -i/-o in 2.4 I think). That is unlikely to be the problem.
As was stated earlier, without giving more specifics, it is unlikely anyone will be able to help.
