If that mode were enabled, it'd load a static script from from /etc/sysconfig/iptables on launch, and respond to any commands other than the "direct" api with an "in direct-only mode" error. Then, firewalld-aware applications could choose to raise a user error or to go to whatever fallback they have. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
