hi list! i have two security problems: 1. i want to close the admin$ share of the samba server. 2. my linux machine is a router. some windows machines from the internal net use it as gateway. my prob is that the port 113 on the linux machine isnot routed in the internal net. i used the security scanner from grc.com andit showed that this port is closed. ident is not started on my linux machine andthe firewall doesn't block that port, so i don't know, why it doesn't route it into theinternal net. i read that instead of stealthing the port it is only closed, becausesome connections need to get an answer of the ident service even if it says, that it isclosed. i need this port routed to internal for using irc. thanx =) -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
