Your iptables question has been answered, but I also wanted to comment on
SIP account naming.  Don't name them something obvious, particularly
numbers, since they will be attacked constantly.  Name your SIP peers
something that isn't going to be in the standard attack scripts.  We use
letters.numbers format to name them.
