filtered ports

[tlyons at digitalvoodoo.org (Tim Lyons)]

Redhat uses ipchains in the default setup.

Check /etc/sysconfig/ipchains and add the following line:

-A input -s 0/0 -d 0/0 22 -p tcp -y -j ACCEPT
Save the file then run 'service ipchains restart' from the shell prompt.

HTH.

Subject: filtered ports


Hello. I am using RedHat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.13-ac5). I am trying to set up 
ssh (having sshd up). When someone scans me via nmap, it says that port 
22 is filtered. I know i don't have iptables or ipchains set up. I was 
also told that RedHat has a default firewall setting that filters ports.

How can I fix this? Thank you.
