If you haven't got a stateful, inspecting firewall, you're hosed. Why do you say such a thing? I don't have a stateful, inspecting firewall -- but rsh seems to work fine. In fact, I don't have a firewall at all -- firewalls just break things. In general, firewalls are a band-aid to patch over broken software; a poor substitute for proper security. -- dwmw2 -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
