oopss... sorry. It must have slipped me that I didn't say that explicitly (it 
was late). But you're correct, I am running a client on the same machine as 
the firewall.

Okay, this clear things up. I use the default one from the shorewall package, 
and it has 
fw net ACCEPT

I assume it provides the similar effect.

Okay. I did check te FAQs about newnotsyn before I posted, and if I understand 
it correctly, I think I can savely ignore this. I'm still ignorant in this 
netfilter business, that's why I just wanted to make sure I don't miss 
anything.

Thanks again for your help.
