Have you opened the IPP ports in the packet filter? How do I tell? I have whatever F9 defaults to; I've tried to disable SELinux, but not I think succeeded. Lacking the skills to be sure whether I've been cracked, let alone those to recover, I try to be paranoid; I install denyhosts, for instance, and likely other defenses that don't spring to mind. Also, the router that my ISP supplies (Netgear MBR 814) supplies several kinds of defenses, which I have tried to set with caution. When I want to do bittorrent, for instance, I have to go change the router settings for a while. (I try to leave them changed long enough to give back more that I take, before I change them back; but I haven't actually used the torrent in months, so they are probably tight.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
