RE: [FW1] Ident port 113.



Yes, Reject - I had problems with FTP servers timing me out because I 
was not responding to DROP'd idents.  Reject at least tells them 
something so it avoids the problems.

Hi,

     After reading the responses in this list I could notice that I've
already installed one rule that drop everything on source to everything 
on
destination using:
     - (UDP) - bootp
     - (TCP) - ident
     - (UDP) - icq
     - (TCP) - BackOriffice
     - (UDP) - ichat_UDP
     - (TCP) - ichat_TCP

     Should I use "reject" instead of "drop" ???

You can place a rule to reject ident, this will speed up most mail 
servers
as they wait x time to get a response, then send anyway.  Set it to 
reject,
not deny

We've had it this way for months and all mail still flows through.

Hi

Smtp servers try to check the identity of the server which is trying to
send
mail to them previously to accept mail from it. It is normal and of you
forbid it  it might be possible, depending on the configuration of your
mail
server, that you cannot receive any mail from any other mail server on 
the
world.

regards
