[Solved] Firewall settings
« on: February 01, 2011, 10:38:21 AM »
I have detected that after setting up the firewall with the configurator, if you go back to it after rebooting, the settings are as they were originally.
Why is this?
I have tried the same in lxde an the settings were as I left them....

Could this mean that the firewall is not on as I want it to be?  ???

When this happened to me sometime ago I reinstalled

shorewall

and that cured it for me.
