Firewall rules are set in the "setup" program in your distro, if I recall correctly. To check if the firewall is indeed the culprit, try this: /usr/sbin/iptables -F That will wipe the firewall temporarily, not including the NAT and mangle tables (in case your box works as a gateway). To clean the NAT and mangle tables too, use these: /usr/sbin/iptables -t nat -F /usr/sbin/iptables -t mangle -F J - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
