I have installed the modules you refer to in your article. Did not work for me. How do yo setup basic iptables rules? I've tried a forced install of the module and when running the perl script this is the error i'm getting: Connecting to IPTables interface...Error: Could not connect to iptables interfac e: iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) at linblock.pl line 69. Would that be something you would have expected? Thanks, Hello,
