Hi folks:

I did an upgrade of OF 2.1b2 to 2.1 final. A customer asked me about iptables (they need to be a secure site, and others around these parts are requiring access controls due to SOX and other good governance rules), and I had thought that it was installed. I port scanned the machine only to see lots of open ports. I can lock it down of course, but would it be possible to only open relevant ports, and specifically only allow port 446 to be open by default upon loading? Then as each service is enabled, the network access rules could be applied to IP tables fairly easily.

Just a thought. If the network access rules are in a particular location (db, flat file, ...), and you need something to emit an IP tables config file, please let me know, I could probably put one together pretty quickly.

Joe
