NFS depends upon RPC services, and some of those RPC services use random ports when they start. what I do: PORTS="`rpcinfo -p | awk '{print $4}' | grep '[0-9]'`" for rpcport in $PORTS do /sbin/ipchains -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 $rpcport -j REJECT -p tcp -i eth0 /sbin/ipchains -A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 $rpcport -j REJECT -p udp -i eth0 done (change REJECT to ACCEPT if your firewall is default deny) nate -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
