Configuring IP Tables

Hi all,

I would like to configure iptables to drop all SSH connections. I have
the following rules set up:

root@lastochka max # iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
DROP tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp
spt:ssh
DROP udp -- anywhere anywhere udp
spt:ssh

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

However, launching an SSH program on another computer and attempting
to connect lets me through.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Max

you have to change --sport 22 to --dport 22

then it will work
