Ipables

Does anyone have a sample iptable script they would be willing to post . Specifically one for a laptop i.e no static addresses.
I have been visiting http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/ and also have few okay books but I dont seem to be able to put a satisfactory script together.

never worked much with them myself, but:

here is a script online that will actually generate scripts for you.

Just do a search in google, this sort of thing is popular and their are nice tutorials and guides on the subject.

I want my laptop to be tight as a drum. I guess it need to ACCEPT dns/dhcp and drop all other INCOMING, except for a few ports needed for file sharing 4762:tcp 4772:udp.

Tight as a drum? How tight are drums?

#!/bin/bash
ifconfig eth0 down

Think oil drums. No movement in or out. Water, oil, chemicals, air, nothing.
