You're most welcome. The one problem with your reasoning regarding the default policy of ACCEPT is that the last rule in the RH-Firewall-1-INPUT chain is a 'drop all' rule... Every RedHat/Fedora/CentOS box I've ever set up nearly the first thing I do is delete the default firewall and construct my own - I don't like the way they structure theirs. IMHO best practice (and clearest logic) is to enable a DROP policy on INPUT and FORWARD chains, and add explicit ACCEPT rules for desired traffic. j _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
