Trying to setup VNC in fedora 11 but if I put the following line in
/etc/syconfig/iptables ;
# 5901 corresponds to :1, 5902 for :2 and so on.
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 5901:5902 -j ACCEPT
Then do # service iptables restart , it fails.
What is happening ??
Try "-I" rather than "-A" to see if earlier rules are the issue.
To avoid rule overhead I put the 'accept ESTABLISHED,RELATED' tcp rule first,
since that's 99% of the traffic.
You didn't ask: you can also tunnel it through ssh and not have the port open
(loopback accepts all).
