Unblock firewall Unbuntu 10.10

[vadik24]

Hello, I'm trying to run gameme from my vds but I can't
get it working because my vds is currently set on firewall. Wondering how do i turn off firewall on ubuntu at SSH

Our VDS installs come with any firewall disabled by default. Are you certain that you have one on? If so, how did you enable it (that will dictate how best to disable it)?

well I know firewall on because my gameme support told me. Here what he/she said
"at the moment, it is still not possible to etablish a rcon connection to the gameserver at address 216.52.143.187 It seems, your firewall is still blocking. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can help you further since the problem is on the box your gameservers are running. Once your box allow incoming connections through the rcon interface again, your gameME Stats account will start working immedately again."

Are you certain that your game server is running on 216.52.143.187 and not a different IP (are you specifying it on the command line)?

In Ubuntu, try the following command to make sure that you don't have firewall rules in place:

Code: Select all

iptables --flush

[vadik24]

yes I'm running that ip with 4 different port. I tried to type that command as root but it doesn't show anything.

Are you able to use rcon in-game while connected to the server?

[vadik24]

it shows this

rcon say hello
Unable to connect to remote server (216.52.143.187:27016)

Did you turn on anything since you installed the server that might remotely relate to a firewall or extra security?

You might have to consider reinstalling, if you can't remember doing anything like that.
