I have a python script that tries to posts to twitter, but it can't connect to twitter unless I create a packet filter rule that let's let's all traffic through. I went onto the forums for the script and someone suggested I try telnet Twitter 80. This didn't work unless I had the packet filter rule that let everything through. I'm kind of surprised I even need a rule for port 80, maybe it's the proxy that's the problem. I have Basic User Authentication. I tried transparent mode and I even disabled proxy in Astaro, but that didn't help, not sure why. I tried adding an exception in the web security > HTTP section, but that didn't work either. I need help in creating a packet filter rule that let's me post to twitter.com.
