| 179011 | 2003-09-30 09:24:00 | Thanks - you guys are brilliant. You were right in that trying to make the Linux PC ping itself was telling (i.e. it didn't work either). Shorewall is the culprit. Thanks for the link. Being more used to Zone Alarm Pro on a PC, I thought pinging was okay thru firewalls but then again I guess there are good securiy reasons for being able to block this too. Will also take a look at Firestarter as bmason suggests. Will do me good to know what else is available. I see that the version of Shorewall that comes with MDK9.1 is an old one anyway (1.3 vs 1.4).
