i opened 67 and 68. i still see in my logs that udp packets on thse ports are being blocked.
Maybe you added the rule to allow them after the rule that's blocking them? The order of the firewall rules is important.
also, i found my dhcpcd-eth0.info file. it has incorrect info! it has the wrong ip address. who is doing this? pump? the last time my net went down, i tried ifdown/ifup. then, ifconfig. the ipaddress i got was the ip that i now see in dhcpcd-eth0.info. it is a "martian", apparently. i ended up having to reboot.
I think only dhcpcd changes dhcpcd-eth0.info.
if i want to get rid of "pump", i just remove the rpm? then my system will auto-configure for dhcpcd? do i need to install dhcpcd?
The scripts are set up to try pump first (if it's available) then fall back to dhcpcd, so if you remove pump ("rpm -e pump") then it should use dhcpcd instead. I suspect you already have dhcpcd installed. Type "rpm -q dhcpcd" to be sure. If you don't have it, then you would need to install it.
i am tail -f ing my /var/log/messages. i see a bunch of messages with "MAC=00:30:28:..." is that my cable modem?these are packets on port 123.
I believe 123=ntp. The MAC address for all incoming packets is probably that of your cable modem.
HTH,
