It's admirable to see all the eager users out there flurrying to the aid of a
fellow user in need. It's laughable that out of all the replies given, nobody
has actually answered his question. Do you actually know how it's done and
are withholding such information to tease the poor fellow, not telling him in
case he might hurt himself by allowing outgoing icmp 3, or don't actually know
and see this as an opportunity to see the font of your own type? BTW the line
is
ipchains -A output -p icmp -s 0/0 destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT
Look lads, fair fucks for trying and all but honestly, if somebody asks for
help with a one-liner, if they provide most of that line themselves, it's a
bit sappy to direct them to a FAQ or tell them to go do something else
