block/unblock by specific port

[edwardsmarkf]

hello -

i am having trouble being able to UNblock by a specific port, in this case, 3306.

in my csf.allow file, when i have just the following:

Code: Select all

123.123.123.123

i can certainly access port 3306 as expected.

HOWEVER when i only have the following: ( i included ALL i could think of just to see if that helped)

Code: Select all

tcp|in|d=3306|s=123.123.123.123
tcp|out|d=3306|s=123.123.123.123
udp|in|d=3306|s=123.123.123.123
udp|out|d=3306|s=123.123.123.123

i am unable to access.

am i missing something obvious here?
