ANSWERED how to whitelist Eddie login in iptables?

[papl 0]

I have custom firewall rules that are similar to but independent of the network lock iptables rules listed here https://airvpn.org/faq/software_lock/. Namely, these:

# Allow TUN
iptables -A INPUT -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o tun+ -j ACCEPT

along with rules in the GUI firewall that default deny everything except for OpenVPN connections.

 

While this works with a plain OpenVPN connection, with these rules the client (Eddie) is unable to log into my account. When I try I get this error:

Cannot login. (curl: (28) Connection timed out after 1000 milliseconds)

What iptables/firewall rule(s) can I add to allow AirVPN/Eddie to login?

 

If it matters I'm running Ubuntu.

I asked support and got this response:

 

Please allow packets to/from the following IP addresses to allow the initial logging of your account through Eddie:
54.93.175.114
5.196.64.52

 

I actually probably won't be able to test if it works for a while if at all, but I thought I would at least leave a potential answer here in case anyone else ever has the same issue.

 

Cheers.
