[GRLUG] DoS Block on my local IP address

[Eric Beversluis]

Suddenly this morning my Linux box won't reach the internet, although 
LAN is working fine. When I look at the firewall log on my Belkin 
router, it shows a DoS block on the Linux box IP address. When I talk to 
Belkin support, they say that I need to change something in the Linux 
box to remove the block, not something in the Belkin wireless router.

Does anyone know what would be causing this and what I need to do? (I 
was trying unsuccessfully to access the Linux box by terminal server 
client last night because of a monitor problem on the box. So I'm 
wondering if that may have triggered some response in the Linux box that 
I need to undo?)

I've tried turning the Linux firewall off an on, turning the Belkin 
firewall off and on, powering down and up the Belkin and the cable 
modem, and probably some other things I can't remember.

Running openSUSE 11.2 on Lenovo 3000 N100.
