I agree a long running daemon would best be written in C, perhaps pyGtk would be good enough for only the GUI config dialogs. I will start a request for a fedorahosted project, then I'll work on recruiting developers yes. So this is what we have, the C deamon (fired :) is going to: - Listen for port listen events (new ports listening) - Control opening/closing of iptables via RTNETLINK - Expose the functionality over dbus The GUI component will: - Be a NetworkManager style applet, but will only be started once "fired" decides to, it should not be running 24x7 - Configure which ports will be opened, and on which condition they will be closed Although NAT-PMP was mentioned, I'm not exactly sure how it fits in this picture. Isn't this designed to open ports on routers ? Regards
