Hi,

This is great info QT,

Thank you

I am a bit of a newbie with this, and was wondering if I could use iptables to drop outgoing packets to certain IP's to protect them from a DOS attack if my box got infected.

Would it be as simple as changing the INPUT to OUTPUT?

Its just that I wouldnt know what to do if I was contacted by a host who said my server was DOSing them.

I would imagine dropping outgoing packets to them would be the first step, and then look around for the scripts causing it?

Thanks in advance,
