thanks a lot :) that was just what i am inneed to, service status was not responding and i was wondering how to check .....
again thnx a lot

:( ooooohhhhh what happened to say that & how dare u ????!!!!
it is better telling what is wrong with my question than trying to make me guilty, i think i have said i am a newbie who needs quick help .......!!!!!!!!!! aren't forums existing for that

these forums are here to help people who do the initial homework and then come here with specific problems or errors in their installation or configuration. you just cant come here and ask people to teach you how to do everything in linux. as acid and aussie pointed you need to read the basics first before coming here running a firing away questions about all the services.

and i think acid already pointed out that you shouldnt be using quick or urgent because this is not a customer service site this a volunteer site.

rinux
 

I am sorry if i offended anyone out there. I was only trying to help the guy along. You are all right about a person should know what they are doing and find out for themselves first. But rinux didnt need iptables help he needs to learn about services and basic administaration of linux am i wrong?
