Once you edit this file, do a 'service iptables restart' to make it active. If it still doesn't work, check /var/log/messages to see if SELinux is denying the socket open for listening. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu
