I have an ip6tables firewall generated by fwbuilder. To my eye it seems perfectly reasonable and should work; however, for some reason all traffic (ping, SSH, port 8000) goes to the RULE_14 and gets logged and rejected. Does anyone have any ideas why this could be?

Code:
zeip:~$ sudo ip6tables-save

When I remove the ip6tables config altogether, ping and all the other services work nicely. Any ideas?

It seems that this was because ICMPv6 was limited too much; by allowing all ICMPv6 traffic in and out everything started working again. I still need to find out if I can restrict a bit, but at least it works now :)

This is one way to test this:
Code:
# ip6tables -I INPUT -p icmpv6 -j ACCEPT
