    Yes, I realized that but it worked well for me in my ignorance of
    iptables, especially for things like NFS. It immediately told me
    what ports it wanted opened ...

    Presently I am struggling with some voip applications that "almost"
    work. The fix for one is to disable the F-12 firewall. I do not
    disable anything routinely and usually most things I use work
    without too much effort. Presently I am stumped, but it seems to me
    there ought to be a log somewhere that tells what's being blocked?
    Where did firestarter get the information?

    Thanks.

    Bob
