i once installed pmfirewall, i think its just a nice config utility for
ipchains.
i cant advise u how to set pmfirewall to allow ftp/telnet but i can tell u
the direct way to do it:
these commands will allow *anybody* to ftp/telnet into your machine from
the internet :
ipchains -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 -p tcp --dport 21 -j ACCEPT
ipchains -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 -p tcp --dport 20 -j ACCEPT
these 2 are for ftp (port 20 is ftp-data)
ipchains -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 -p tcp --dport 23 -j ACCEPT
and this is telnet, u can simply add these 2 commands to your
/etc/rc.local, however i would recommend to read the ipchains howto and
build a *custum* firewall to your needs, its important to really understand
what u are doing when building a firewall.
unfortunately i dont know what XDMCP is so i cant tell u the ipchains rule
to allow it, maybe someone else can help here.....
