hello everyone,

I am trying to send data from port 6891, to a number of different ports on the recieving end. I have setup a rule stating;

Allow, on TCP, using IGMP, Source = Any IP, Port = 6891, Destination = any, (and the port I just left blank asuming that it would send to any).

I am constantly getting the following error(s) in the log when I try to send data.

Dec 29 01:22:24 localhost kernel: ipfw: 65000 Deny TCP 142.177.38.93:4882 156.34.18.***:6891 in via ppp0

Dec 29 01:30:08 localhost kernel: ipfw: 65000 Deny TCP 142.177.38.93:4891 156.34.18.***:6891 in via ppp0

Any suggestions?
Thanks alot for taking the time to deal with such a silly problem.

welcome to SE bcode. Nice avatar!

I actually have never used ipfw so I'll be of no help to you on this but I did manage to find a nice link that might be able to help you out.

In addition others will most likely want to see your ruleset in order to help troubleshoot.

I also know others on this forum have lots of ipfw experience. Hope that helps! :)
