Hello,

can anybody please spot an error here?

# sudo service iptables start Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ] Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ] Unloading iptables modules: [ OK ] Applying iptables firewall rules: iptables-restore: line 20 failed [FAILED]

And my /etc/sysconfig/iptables is (I'm trying to enable Samba, Apache, FMS dev. ed. and throttled SSH at 22 and 443):

*filter :INPUT DROP [0:0] :FORWARD DROP [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [294:35064] -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -s 194.247.190.0/24 -j DROP -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m udp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 8080 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 1935 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 1111 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 443 --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -m limit --limit 1/min --limit-burst 2 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -m limit --limit 1/min --limit-burst 2 -j ACCEPT COMMIT

Any hints on how to debug those issues? The error message line points to the COMMIT.

Thank you Alex
