I want to ask another question -- Why do we need the last line in the file iptables: -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited If I comment it out, then everything works. Will that cause firewall actually not functioning? In fc3,fc4 I don't see similar line in the default firewall setting. Something new in fc5? Thanks! Hongwei
