    Hi folks,


    Ubuntu 7.04 lamp server amd64 - Host OS
    VMware
    Guest OS - not yet installed.
    Iptables-1.3.6


    $ cat /etc/network/interfaces
    Code:
    # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
    # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
    
    # The loopback network interface
    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback
    
    # The primary network interface
    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet static
            address 192.168.0.10
            netmask 255.255.255.0
            gateway 192.168.0.1
    

    Browser can connect Internet w/o problem.


    After performing following steps to setup iptables, Internet connection blocked.

    Edited /etc/rc.local and entered following rules on it
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh -e
    #
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    
    #exit 0
    
    #

    $ ping -c3 yahoo.com

    I have to run following command to stop iptables.

    $ sudo iptables -F
    No complaint

    $ ping -c3 yahoo.com
    Code:
    PING yahoo.com (216.109.112.135) 56(84) bytes of data.

    Internet connection then worked.


    Please advise where goes wrong. TIA
