IPTables script question...

Hi,

I have a small iptables security script,
works like this:

1) block ALL incoming (except allowed stuff I specified such as FTP, SSH, etc)
2) allow ALL outgoing.

Now, part 1 works just fine.
However, part 2 doesn't. For some reason it keeps blocking all outgoing...

I run the script, and then try and SSH from this server to another server... It doesn't work. It is not the return packets that are being blocked, since the other host never gets the request. It is the initial call on this server (with the iptables script)...

Does anyone have a clue?? My script CLEARLY states "ALLOW ALL OUTGOING"...

Thanks.
