I've been using it for years for simple firewalling, and it's generally been very reliable. I've configured Samba to work before just using the enable incoming SMB option in Firestarter. If you say the iptables rules that produced weren't sufficient, I'll take that into account if troubles reappear and investigate further. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
