Hello:

Thank you all.  I went ahead and changed the setting in interactivebastille.  
Not sure what had to be done next, but I ended up having to reboot in order 
get the change to kick in.  Is it suppose to work this way?  In any case, the 
issue is not an issue any longer.  But something else has come up, which I 
think is also due to the firewall.

Before installing the firewall I was able to access the hard drive on my 
winbox (I have a two pc lan.  One pc is a dedicated winbox, the other is a 
dual boot winbox/linux.  I am referring to the dedicated winbox).  After the 
installation I cannot access it as a standard user.  I can reach it as root, 
but more interestingly(troublesome), even as root I can't change the 
permissions for it.  Any suggestions???  Thanks again...

Dexter
