iptables-restore: line 1 failed
- by Doug
Hello, I am new to servers, and I was following this guide and it failed on the first command instructed. Could anyone give me a hand?
http://wiki.debian.org/iptables
~ZORO~:/etc# iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.test.rules
iptables-restore: line 1 failed
Edit:
iptables.test.rules
~ZORO~:/etc# cat /etc/iptables.test.rules
*filter
# Allows all loopback (lo0) traffic and drop all traffic to 127/8 that doesn't use lo0
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i ! lo -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j REJECT
# Accepts all established inbound connections
-A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
# Allows all outbound traffic
# You could modify this to only allow certain traffic
-A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT
# Allows HTTP and HTTPS connections from anywhere (the normal ports for websites)
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
# Allows SSH connections for script kiddies
# THE -dport NUMBER IS THE SAME ONE YOU SET UP IN THE SSHD_CONFIG FILE
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 30000 -j ACCEPT
# Now you should read up on iptables rules and consider whether ssh access
# for everyone is really desired. Most likely you will only allow access from certain IPs.

-A INPUT -j REJECT
-A FORWARD -j REJECT
