Iptables ignoring a rule in the config file
- by Overdeath
I see lot of established connections to my apache server from the ip 188.241.114.22 which eventually causes apache to hang . After I restart the service everything works fine.
I tried adding a rule in iptables
-A INPUT -s 188.241.114.22 -j DROP
but despite that I keep seeing connections from that IP.
I'm using centOS and i'm adding the rule like thie:
iptables -A INPUT -s 188.241.114.22 -j DROP
Right afther that I save it using: service iptables save
Here is the output of iptables -L -v
