Hi,
How do I add 5900 to the centos firewall? How do I edit the conf file?
You can get into a FW cfg screen (sort of gui - ncurses I beleive) by running:
# setup
Hmm, after ssh'ing in, I run setup and nothing. a 'locate' turns up nothing either..
yum install system-config-network-tui system-config-network-tui
This just lets you change UP/DNS info if I recall.
Wont do anything to the firewall.

Install the setup program as I pointed out in another email.
As for editing the firewall, (without the setup program) you would use the "iptables" command and it's switches to get the work done.
You could also use something like fwbuilder which is a GUI that writes your iptables script for you.
