FC6 system-config-securitylevel port 631 accept
[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]
Why does the security program always leave UDP/TCP port 631 at accept?
I know the port is typically used for printing (CUPS). But why is it
left open? It seems it should be put behind the firewall, then if
someone wants to, they can open it up.
Specifically referring to Fedora6 install and the
system-config-securitylevel and the gui app that works with it.
Can I assume the logic is that this is a simple user interface so
individual users on a home network can enable the firewall and still
share printers by default?
