As i try to learn enough about security to defend meself, i find how to list open/connected/listening ports, what services said ports are connected to, etc.etc.etc... But when it comes to shutting/blocking a port it's "edit ipchains...restart xyz..." yadayadyada... So, Question; How do i close a port? Not put it into exile. Not make it ask my permision to open.
netstat -etc=> port xyz is open. I want it closed/blocked/whatever. Now. How do i do that? pkl __________________________________________________________________ "If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
