I've setup Centos 4.4 with default firewall setup, to allow http/smtp/ssh/ftp; I didn't see any option to add additional exceptions in install screens;
I'd like to allow MySQL/3306 access looking at /etc/sysconfig/iptables, the tail of file has like: --------- .... -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 21 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited COMMIT ---------- can I just add like, after 'dport 25' line; -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT the first line of this file reads: # Manual customization of this file is not recommended. -- Voytek -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
