Iptable configurations for web access and different clients?

I am using iptable for certain project and came across a few questions:




  1. I have VMBox with 2 different machines installed along with my host machine. I have made change such that all three have different IP's.
    Now, I can ssh from 1 VM to another using the root password but I cannot ssh from my host computer to the machine? Is there any particular reason why that would happen?


  2. How do I check if web access is allowed from one machine to another?
    I have blocked port 80 with tcp for https but I have no idea how to test it unlike telnet or ssh that I can use for other purpose?


  3. iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 23 –m connlimit
    --connlimit-above 1 -j DROP



I know this code doesnot allow more than 1 telnet login from each client.
But what here specifies each client i.e. what if I want a total of 1 telnet login from all the clients? What would I change?
