By firewall, do you mean this

Code: Select all

/etc/rc.d/rc.FireWall

Hi Rava

Code: Select all

root@porteux:/etc/rc.d# ./rc.FireWall start
bash: ./rc.FireWall: Keine Berechtigung
root and "Keine Berechtigung" ?? !!
I am using PorteuX Xfce 4.16

Possible, when the file mode bits are messed up.

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# cd /etc/rc.d
root@porteus:/etc/rc.d# ls -l rc.FireWall 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2931 2020-12-11 07:29 rc.FireWall
How are your rc.FireWall file mode bits?

presumably that and /opt/porteus-scripts/gtk-firewall, usually accessed via porteus settings centre.
as far as ipv6 goes, only a token effort to configure it for that was made, so it's quite likely the deficiency lies with me.
tinkering with rc.FireWall , in the sections regarding ipv6, would be the way to fix it.

if you use ./rc.FireWall start (and it fails), you need to first do: chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.FireWall , ie make it executable.
otherwise, just use sh /etc/rc.d/rc.FireWall start since `sh foo` does not require "executability" of foo, but `./foo` does.

chmod +x
I should have thought of that myself

Just opened cncjs-appimage...after start the app oppened a remote adress...
( currports is the program to see port acces and remote adress )
It is possible to control the internet access for some applications from firewall ?
( like simplewall or no root firewall - where every application can be controled for net access )
Thanks in advance..

porteus settings centre gives us the option to turn on firewall and what i get is the default settings for ipv6 has not been done, but is a great start. What i did is just leave it off for now. :fine:
