hi i'm running sme server in my network.
there is a problem.if i set dns on the client machine as primary one my sme box and sec. one as the one provided by my internet provider and deny all the network then also the people in the network are able to connect yahoo mess. or surf the sites.
if i remove secondary dns and only keep dns of my sme box then this sort of thing doesn't happens.
my question:
1) if i had denied all the network pcs, how can any 1 in the network access the outside dns, as the request to resolve has to go from sme box itself?
/sbin/iptables --append \$new_fal \\
-s $local -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables --append \$new_fal \\
-d $local -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables --append \$new_ial \\
-s $local -j ACCEPT
if i comment out these lines from the templates 90adjustAllowLocal and expand templates again and restart masq the problem seems to go away. but if i do so another problem arises that of downloading mails from outlook on local machine.
the outlook gives error if i comment out these lines and if i keep these lines the outlook works fine
2) can anyone explain the reason for this and possible solution??
help me out, i'm in gr8 need!!!!!!
