Step 2 you are correct but you failed to look at step 1 which DOES START the firewall. -- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value!

Do you have any suggestion for installing the iptables? thanks a lot It is most likely installed as this is default unless you tell the install program not to install it. To start IPTALBES: service iptables start To ensure it starts all the time on reboot: chkconf --level 2345 iptables on that doesn't actually 'start iptables', rather that sets it so the system firewall scripts are run at startup. /sbin/iptables isn't actually a service, its a command line tool for manipulating and displaying the kernel firewall rule tables.the /etc/init.d/iptables 'service' script runs the rules scripts in /etc/sysconfig/iptables and -config files, which in turn are configured by lokkit or whatever. anyone building custom firewall rules, with smoothwall or whatever, will probably use a different startup script... I frequently call mine /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall and invoke it from my own /etc/init.d/firewall 'service' entry. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Do you have any > suggestion for installing the iptables? Then it's probably installed, which you can check with: rpm -q iptables Note that iptables is in /sbin. So, if you are changing to root, use su with a dash (-) to make sure that the PATH variable is updated: su - If not, you'll have to specify the full path to the iptables command. -- Daniel ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

What does "ls -l /sbin/iptables" say? What is the output of "rpm -q iptables"? If both of those come back with nothing: What is the output of "uname -a"?
