Subject: How to open port 1935?
Hi, I am trying to open few ports on RedHat 5 but no success so far. I tried to change firewall settings with: iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p udp --dport 1935 -j ACCEPT iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -j ACCEPT service iptables restart Nothing. Can somebody help please? How can I open this ports? Thanks

Did you try turning the firewall off to see if it works? Does that port need to be in the /etc/services? iptraf is a network utility. Just a few things to try. [Modified by: Beann on October 14, 2008 11:13 PM]

Hi Beann, Thanks for reply. I have dedicated server and I can't disable firewall. I contacted support and they said I can open ports myself with iptables. I tried everything but no success.

sash, Use the iptraf to see if that is the correct port trying to be used. Also take a look at this site. http://www.physics.umd.edu/pnce/user-docs/Linux/firewall.html As always make a copy of your current iptables before flushing.
