Pardon me for butting in here....but this is one of the reasons why I
recommend the use of a good front-end to iptables.  The syntax can be a
bit much to learn/understand especially when you don't use it that often.

Besides, if you are going to use iptables you may as well build up some
decent firewall rules/policies as well to give yourself the protection
that iptables was designed to provide.

I'll only suggest using shorewall, http://www.shorewall.net, as this is my
personal favorite.  Easy to understand, good documentation, good examples,
great help from their mailing list.  One reason I like shorewall is that
while it makes iptables easy it doesn't hide everything from you such that
you can't learn what you've accomplished.

Regards,
Ed
