I am having big problems with the router though! This AT&T Uverse router is made by 2-wire and it has the worst configuration firmware I have ever had the displeasure of using. Currently, when a remote host tries to connect on port 25, the router (which is configured to forward all ports to my lan ip address), and which is configure to let in connection requests on port 25), is rejecting these connections with the message logged: INF 2010-08-17T09:38:01-07:00 fw,fwmon src=74.125.83.47 dst=x.y.y.z ipprot=6 sport=49645 dport=25 Unknown inbound session stopped The source IP is google. How could google mail server possible start an Unknown inbound session? What the heck is Unknown inbound session anyway, when the firewall rules are set up to ALLOW smtp ?? I think this routers firmware is a piece of dog sh*t. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
