Just shoot me. One answer was right in front of me in the forums. The firewall
starts on bootup by default. No problem, first thing I usually do is hit the
'Net and check mail, so I'm protected. Logoff, and stop the firewall since I
don't need it now.
To stop the firewall, as root:
service bastille-firewall stop
Then, Diablo2: Lord of Destruction networking with WineX works fine.
If I need to log back on to the 'Net before I shutdown again, I just issue a:
service bastille-firewall start
and the firewall resumes. Of course, just looking at the Bastille config file
tells me there is a way to allow access from my Lan with the firewall up
(although I don't know exactly -what- to enter there) but this works for now
so...
Thanks to all who replied!
PS Its also kind of reassuring to know that the firewall is -blocking-. ;-)
