Tom, That maakes sense but how do I open that UDP port? I started this thread because I did not understand the syntax of the ipchains rules. The only down side I have found to LRP is no man pages. I tried the HOW-TOs but they assume a higher level of Linux knowledge than I have. Scott Best's echowall was suggested because it did not require a lot of esoteric command lines. I like the current plan of using one boot disk for gaming and a second for normal protection is fine so I could have one with echowall or modified ipchains rules if I can figure them out.
