Hi Eric,

I wrote the iptables service and documentation. So, the mistake is
entirely due to my poor grasp of iptables! :-)

I have applied your patch, and pushed to master. Thanks!

Cheers,
Arun

Dear List,

I have often puzzled over the iptables example that is given in the Guix manual.

It seems that this rule would allow someone to ssh in, but would not
practically allow ssh *outward* because the session would not be able to
receive a response.

I've added what I think is a line that fixes the issue.

Best regards,
Eric
