Why do you think that it is not working? Because "service iptables" has started it before. I locked myself out last night from SSH because I used --dport 21:23 instead of --dport ! 21:23; so I came in this morning and plugged in someone else's keyboard into it and logged in and typed "service iptables stop", there was no monitor so (even if I could read it) no message was displayed, but it must have stopped because I now have my SSH access in place. -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > -- As a boy I jumped through Windows, as a man I play with Penguins. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
