Dad says this:
My FC6 box has 2 NICs, one connects to the DSL modem (192.168.1 subnet) and the
other connects to the LAN (192.168.0 subnet). One of my kids wants to play
runescape. When he tries, the runescape server says that I need to allow
outgoing network connections on port 43594.
What is confusing is that it works fine on my PC. I am running
squid-2.6.STABLE13-1 and dansguardian v2.9.8.2. The kids access the net via
dansguardian which passes all requests to squid - works perfectly for normal
browsing. Their PCs do not do anything else on the net except use the web - no
other network access is set up.
On my PC my browser points at squid - runescape works fine.
I have tried adding port 43594 /tcp to the iptables config using the FC6
firewall front end, have tried using Firestarter but couldn't figure out what
to do, wanted to try guarddog but couldn't find an RPM or download the source
(that is another problem - simonzone gives 510 error). Nothing worked, as
catweazle would say.
Tried installing webmin thinking it might make iptables look easier, but that
didn't work
My iptables settings is very simple, almost the same as the day
I set the OS up. But you need to know what to change in iptables, and I don't.
What am I missing?
Anyone know anything? Seeing as this forum is full of Linux loving Unix Hugging disciples.
