kilimanjaro Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 I cannot get gtk gnutella to connect. It was working fine a couple of days ago, but all of a sudden it doesn't work. I tried dis abling my firewall and it still won't connect. I did just update my system. Maybe that has something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MottS Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 As a test put the following in /etc/shorewall/policy all all ACCEPT info Notice that you have to comment out the rest. So if you have 'fw net ACCEPT' or 'masq net ACCEPT', comment (put a # in front of them) them. Now restart shorewall. As root type service shorewall restart Source: http://www.shorewall.net/Documentation.htm#Policy Let us know if it works now because some tweaking in /etc/shorewall/rules will be needed.

kilimanjaro Posted September 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 I don't know how to do what you are advising. I am new to mandrake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MottS Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 I don't know how to do what you are advising. I am new to mandrake. oh .. ok then. Open the file located at /etc/shorewall/policy as root (the admin of the system) and do the mod. Open a console and do that as follow (this should open an editor for you to do the mod): su [enter your password] kwrite /etc/shorewall/policy Now save the changes and in the same console that your opened, type that to restart the firewall : service shorewall restart as simple as that MottS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
