Use `iptables -L` to see what the rules really are. `iptables -vL` with counts. `iptables -vnL` for numbers instead of names. Use `iptables -vL` before and after trying to get an uncached web page. See which counts went up. If that doesn't do it, use tcpdump and look for ports that you didn't open. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/> -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
