Thought it might be iptables so I did
iptables $BKG(Blush
not sure that was smart$B)B(Bll my rules are gone…
Also with iptables when I restart I get this..

[root (at mark) ns8 mqueue]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables restart
Flushing firewall rules:                                   [  OK  ]
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter                    [  OK  ]
Unloading iptables modules:                                [FAILED]
Applying iptables firewall rules:                          [  OK  ]

Any help would be greatly appreciated…

Mitch
