Iptables question

[Craig White]

Perhaps this is just a thing with Linode VPS but it is Fedora 11.

I would think that given my iptables rules, this shouldn't happen

# ssh root at localhost
ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused

Yes, port 22 is not allowed for eth0 but it should be on 'localhost'

# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6
localhost6.localdomain6

I am using the following rules...

:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]                                                    
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]                                                  
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]                                                   
:RH-Firewall-1-INPUT - [0:0]                                           
-A INPUT -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT                                        
-A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT

-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p 50 -j ACCEPT                                 
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p 51 -j ACCEPT

# Finally

WTF?
