Hi Alex,
thanks for the reply. like yourself i have all of my network hiden away behind smoothwall firewalls, which is why i was giong with just a shutdown.

the truth is when ever i use the gnome security-level tool it does not work, i have fonud that i am unable to change the firewalls on RH8 to Fedora core 2 useing this, and to be honest i havent worked out how to adjust the firewall through the command line.

yea i know, i should really raise my game in this area, but i just tend to rely on my perimiter defences.

if you have time to note down any tips for me, on changing the firewall settings useing the command line, that would rock!

cheers,

spikes
