Re: [SLE] Firewall2 : How to open and close ports

When I try to mail you directly I keep getting timeouts. On Tuesday 10 September 2002 23.01, Jacob Fierberg wrote:

Ok here is what I know. The following ports were open when I grep'd them: finger, telnet, pop3. I went into /etc/inetd.conf and commented them out but I guess that did not do a lot. I tried the /sbin/iptables -L thing but got an error that says the iptables do not exist. I tried using ipchains but the kernel does not support them. What now?

Sorry, my mistake. It should have been /usr/sbin/iptables -L If the firewall is running you'll get an enormous amount of output. If it is not running, you'll get about 6 lines. //Anders
