a .dsl is just a .tar.gz, so u can rename with emelfm, unpack it, modify, repack and rename again.

if it's just a one line script, why not just copy the whole line into
.xinitrc ? then you don't need start_firewall.

rxvt +tr -T "rc.firewall" -e sudo /etc/init.d/rc.firewall &

The producers of routers for adsl states there is a built-in firewall function. Wouldn't that be enough?

hy Humpty,thanks for your tips,is the best solutions add the line script directly in the .xinitrc thanks thanks

hy Thulemanden: in italy most people does not have adsl routers,i have ethernet modem without built-in firewall protection.
however,most peple have routers web page with default password (admin admin) and the web page is acessible from the internet (type the ip address)
the r.c. firewall is a safety protection.
bye and good dsl.
good weekend.

Hi,
I was totally new to rc.firewall and had to search a lot a solution in order to shut it down and bring it up without rebooting my machine. So, the solution:

start the rc.firewall once loaded (open a shell as root):

/etc/init.d/rc.firewall start

stop the rc.firewall (open a shell as root):

/etc/init.d/rc.firewall stop

I hope it can help.

yours
z
