Hi guys, By default Centos 5.6 seems to be blocking incoming HTTP traffic through the firewall. I can fix the issue with this: Code: iptables -I RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT And Apache will work until I restart the server, when my changes vanish. What's the most appropriate method to commit these changes so they can survive a restart? I'm extremely new to Linux (setting up a cloud server via Putty - literally have an hour's experience with the platform). Updating / installing Apache / configuring vhosts was a breeze but this has me stumped! Appreciate any tips I guess it could be done with an auto-executing batch to run that command every reboot but that seems very inelegant. -Sam
There are multiple ways to do this kind of stuff. When i know it's just 1-5 rules i put them all in /etc/rc.local more rules and i make a /etc/init.d/script and add it to the rc's
