My $0.02: If you want to make sure that iptables never starts again (assuming that it runs at boot):
# chkconfig --level 345 iptables off Other than that, the stuff mentioned (hosts.allow/deny, telnetting to the port, looking through logs, capture with tcpdump) is all great advice.

But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger. --Hermann Goering <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
