<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm pretty new to Linux, so please pardon me if a
few links of the chain are missing. I've recently installed RH 7.2 and I was
impressed to see that only one port is open compared to the twelve open ports of
a default Windows 2000 installation. During the install I specified only medium
firewall rules while selecting web and ftp ports to be open. However, those
ports are not open. I've installed Apache to begin with but I can't reach it
from outside the machine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What config file(s) do I need to edit to open those
ports?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance.</FONT></DIV>
