Firewall question
 

This is a probably a really stupid question but how do I disable the firewall (i.e. allow all connections) on a Debian (Woody) installation from the command line?

TIA.

Try but I would suggest you rather visit www.tldp.org for a good howto on setting up a firewall.

Thanks, I tried the command but that path does not exist and /sbin/iptables says that 'stop' is a bad argument.

I will have a look at the tutorial but all I really need to do is disable it.

# service iptables stop

However which benefit can you get when stop it? :)
