Quite.
- You're shure you have the following /public/ services: webserver, SSH,
FTP, and mailserver?
If not, or if you don't know what I'm talking about, remove the lines
containing "state NEW ... ACCEPT".
- 127.127.1.0 is local clock reference and has nothing to do with
firewalling.
And more...
Better you look here
<http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialIptablesNetworkGateway.html>
or here <http://www.linuxguruz.com/iptables/> before connecting your
machine to the internet.
