-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2012-0543 2012-02-20 18:26:33 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : fwrestart Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 1.05 Release : 4.el6 URL : http://www.tummy.com/Community/software/ Summary : A way to more safely re-load firewall rules remotely Description : This program can automatically detect when changes to the firewall block the administrative shell session, and to take corrective action fwrestart uses terminal auto-response codes to safely re-start firewall rules over a remote shell session. It sends a request to your terminal (xterm, for example), which responds back automatically. When that response is received, ensuring that fwrestart can communicate with the terminal, fwrestart then issues a command to restart the firewall. It then tries another request to the terminal, and if that is not received within 5 seconds, a command is run to clear the firewall and an appropriate error is generated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix issue with restart not happening correctly on el6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use su -c 'yum update fwrestart' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
