I block every port default by ufw

and add iptables rules like this:

sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 1723 -m mac --mac-source 00:11:22:33:44:55 -j ACCEPT

then I list iptables INPUT rules:

sudo iptables -L INPUT --line-numbers

Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
num  target     prot opt source               destination
1    ACCEPT     udp  --  anywhere             anywhere            udp dpt:domain
2    ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:domain
3    ACCEPT     udp  --  anywhere             anywhere            udp dpt:bootps
4    ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:bootps
5    ufw-before-logging-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
6    ufw-before-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
7    ufw-after-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
8    ufw-after-logging-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
9    ufw-reject-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
10   ufw-track-input  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
11   ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:1723 MAC 00:11:22:33:44:55

but I can't visit my server:1723

Is there sth wrong?

I use Ubuntu 11.10
