Yes, the same problem.  The other main problem of the gui tool is that it does
not provide some required options, e.g. I want to open a port (say 2049, 137,
139) ONLY to my lan, but the gui tool does have place to enter "source",
"destination", etc. It only provides port number and tcp/udp selection.  How
to do it with source/destination?

Thanks.

Then it sounds like you need a more powerful firewall configuring
program. Try firestarter

`yum install firestarter` should get you what you want. I would first
disable the Fedora based firewall before using Firestarter.
