However if you want to open an arbitrary port, this is advanced feature and you don't simply add exception, you define advanced opened port. a) I don't see how this is advanced feature, and from my POV opening cups port is at the same level of opening port 100 b) please note you can open the same "basic" ports via "advanced" button c) I don't know what was the purpose of such design, but I know the effect for sure -- it is hard to trace opened ports, because instead of the list, you have to check the list AND small button "advanced" which can reveal a bunch of opened extra ports So please, get rid of it. Put _all_ opened ports in one list, don't split the data to basic ports and advanced ports. User should add to the list either predefined port or arbitrary port, meaning selecting from combobox name of the service, or entering the number + type (TCP, UDP...). Current UI design is obscure and can reach to security breach. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
