If RedHat's GUI front-end isn't working, you can directly edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables, and add the appropriate rule to allow traffic on port 21. It appears that I have the same problem, if I set my security settings to High. If I set them to Medium, then I can add custom rules and it works. You might want to try this before editing the file directly. It should look something like this, but use your own IP network, and it should all be on one line: -A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/24 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 21 --syn -j ACCEPT -- Dave Sherman MCSE, MCSA, CCNA "If we wanted you to understand it, we wouldn't call it code." -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
