Hi All,
i am facing a lil bit problem, hope anyone out there can help me...
i want to open specific port using iptables i.e 3159
Whenever i tried to telnet it generates the following error
# telnet 172.16.4.100 3195
Trying 172.16.4.100...
telnet: connect to address 172.16.4.100: No route to host
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: No route to hostbut when I stopped iptables
# service iptables stopIts working fine
i added the ports in iptables i.e.
#iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3195 -j ACCEPTfor safe side I also added telnet port
#iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 -j ACCEPT
but result was same....
In short telnet works without iptables but with iptables it generates the error mentioned above
