Jim, thank you for answering me.

But I don't know what you mean about "2002 prefix". What's this? Maybe I =
use it and don't know....

  Do you use a 2002 prefix ?

    Hy all,

    I have configured my iptables rules to block every  new not syn =
packet. The rule is:
    iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp ! --syn -m state --state NEW -j DROP.

    The problem is that there is some sites that I can't browse from my =
firewall box. (for example, the "login" page in the redhat's site).
    I read in the iptables Tutorial that "new not syn" packets are not =
used in the standard implementations.

    Could someone give me some opinions about this subject? How must I =
proceed?(do I block all new not syn packets?)
    Also, could someone explain me what is the syn bit?
    Bellow is the log of the dropped new not syn packet originated from =
my firewall (SRC=3D200.195.39.14):

    Jan  3 16:27:20 15bis kernel: New not syn:IN=3D OUT=3Deth0 =

    Thank you,
