RHEL4 built in firewall, how to change from cli???


Like the title says hehehe.

I have a centos 4.3 (RHEL) install on a server at home that has the built in firewall enabled (selinux is not however). It's setup to remotely ssh in and that works without a problem. However I want to open another port for something else remotely and I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to do it.

There has to be a simple way to do this???

Thanks

just use system-config-securitylevel or directly edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables

That worked, I knew it was something simple, just couldn't for the life of me find it.

Thanks
