Just like Reindl you make the mistake of thinking that rygel needs to be fixed or that it's the only service impacted by this scheme. It's not, and it was pointed out in earlier mails. The full explanation of the final designs is here: http://www.hadess.net/2014/06/firewalls-and-per-network-sharing.html The plan of implementation for Fedora was posted here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.desktop/9883/ And the list of default services with an explanation of which ports are used is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/103SAK-7ch5wpGiCP3KF9CYlIhLQFTy9SSvBvBziWBZc/edit?usp=sharing For example, RTSP streaming, Rhythmbox remote control for iOS, music sharing via DAAP, DLNA sharing via rygel, but also DLNA client usage (through Videos), and VNC are impacted. This is a non-exhaustive list for the default applications in the Workstation version. Removing rygel won't fix all the other use cases. In fact, it will cripple the default installation with less features, and won't help the other features work. A lose-lose situation.
