iptables questions

[Tyler Littlefield]

Yay, I agree that it is.
They called my grandma, and told her that they were "upgrading."
So, the tech came down, and "upgraded." I had the router all set up on
different ports and stuff, (web admin, on 8000) so I could help her when she
needed it.
They changed it over... Anyway, it was a public static before they
"upgraded." but then they jsut locked us in behind there firewall, or what
ever they did.
Thanks,
