try edit firewall script with su
Code: Select all
gksu "mousepad /etc/rc.d/rc.Firewall"
then find line "ALLOWED_PORTS" and add the port you want to open here. for example 7234
Code: Select all
ALLOWED_PORTS="20 21 22 25 80 110 143 443 7234"
save it and restart the firewall:
Code: Select all
gksu "/etc/rc.d/rc.Firewall stop"
gksu "/etc/rc.d/rc.Firewall start"
but this setting won't load in next always fresh mode
You can try to create module for your applications, which I more recomended, so it will be able even if in always fresh mode.

Many Thanks Nergal
I tried it but I get this error message
(gksu:2261): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
GConf Error: No D-BUS daemon running
I see the path where the firewall file is and edit it with kwrite, but will not let me save changes
Thanks for the help

You need to run this command as guest, not root.
If running it as root just leave out the gksu part.

Thanks again
I have also tried as a guest. A window appears and asks for administrative authentication permision (root?) and gives me this error with password "toor"
guest@porteus:~$ gksu "mousepad /etc/rc.d/rc.Firewall"
Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
sh: mousepad: no se encontró la orden
with password "guest" appears new error windows
Failed to run mousepad /etc/rc.d/rc.Firewall as user root.

Received:
