Started webmin bandwidth monitoring and now cant see linux on network

[shocker-z]

Hi there,

I was in a playful mood this morning and now regretting it..

I'm running Mandriva 2007 and i opened webmin to look at my VPN server and noticed Bandwidth Monitoring and thought i would click it then click on setup on eth0 and then it said page timed out and everything else timed out that i was connected to on the linux server.

If i ping 192.168.1.4 (Linux machine) from windows i get Request Timed out, yet if i ping 192.168.1.3 (Windows) from the linux machine then i get a reply.

So in my logic that say's that this is a firewall issue, i stopped shorewall from running and left plain linux firewall to do the job but still have the same issue.

here is my ifconfig

Sorted it, it set linux firewall to drop all packets :S
