How do I get fc4 to drop ping requests? I've looked in a few places, but am coming up blank.
If you're using the "built-in" firewall, add this line somewhere in the middle (likely before any other line with "icmp" in it, or just replace those lines with this one):
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p icmp -j DROPThat will drop all icmp packets on the floor, so ping & friends will no longer work.
It's not an elegant solution, and there are cases where pings are good things, so use my advice at your own risk. :)
