Is there a built in firewall in FC2
Yes, if you took the normal suggestions at install time
that stops certain traffic to the
NIC? sshd is running and i can ssh to the localhost but from outside I
cannot. The machine is assigned a static private IP and is behind Netopia router. the netopia is set to forward all traffic to the
static Ip of the FC2 machine but the connection dies when I attempt to
connect. does anyone know where I can check this in FC2?
The command: service iptables stop will turn off the firewall.
You say "static private IP" - like what? What IP does the router have and what IP does your machine have?
Some ISP's in our area are providing 192.168., 10. and 172.16. type addresses to end users for a ceratin inexpensive class of service. Those are non routable.
