Linux iptables -> is it possible?
Hi!
I have a dedicated hosting working with 2 ips.

Is it possible to block all connections but 1 in all existing ports for only 1 of my ips?

I mean like, I have 2 ips for example: 190.x.x.5 and 190.x.x.6
I want that all the connections going to 190.x.x.6 in all ports get rejected but only 1 connection, my laptop ip which is (example) 80.x.x.1

If I understand correctly, block everything to .6 except from 80.x.x.1

Code:
iptables -I INPUT -d 190.x.x.6 -s 80.x.x.1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -d 190.x.x.6 -j DROP

Almost working.
It blocks all connections good, but its even blocking those comming from 80.x.x.1

oh sorry, i used -I on both. that is the insert operation and adds the rule to the top (a habit)..

You'd want to use -A to append, as long as nothing is in your input chain.
Please ensure nothing else is in input chain iptables -L INPUT, and flush it, iptables -F INPUT, and then use -A in lieu of -I for the code I gave before..
