Cannot FTP or ping out

[Drakkon]

Which ports need to be open for FTP? I'm running a server off port 21. PASV connections allowed off 10000-11000, open all those up in IPtables and it still doesnt allow traffic.
Also allow 8,11,30 for ICMP traffic - any others that would need to be enabled for a simple windows ping?

ICMP doesn't use any ports and why are you doing outbound filtering?

Agreed. You should allow new outgoing and established connections.

Try turning the firewall off for a minute and then see if your connections work. If so, then your firewall is set to strict. If not, then you have a different problem.

Sorry I ment allowing those types of ICMP traffic, not those ports. I didn't think i was doing any outbound filtering (there are no rules set as such) yet for some reason I'm unable to connect or ping.

If so, then your firewall is set to strict.

Firewall is set too strict :/

Did you check the FORWARD chain in addition to the OUTPUT one?

 

[Drakkon]

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)

Yeah nada in either - i must be running something else thats blocking traffic. I used a centos distro - what else might be running that would block traffic?
