Open ports in firewall ?

[Lutchy Horace]

Hello,

How do you open ports for a service ?

I was able to resolve it:

config set webmin status enabled TCPPort 10000 access public
signal-event nethserver-firewall-base-save

The process is a bit convoluted, I was unable to find any relevant setting aside from Port Forwarding which didn't seem to do the trick.

Hi,

you did well.
We updated the documentation just yesterday.
You can find a little more here:
http://docs.nethserver.org/projects/nethserver-devel/en/latest/services.html

You're right. We are working on a new module to manage network services
on the server. I've already a web interface stub. (See:
http://dev.nethserver.org/issues/2752).
We will expand above documentation as soon the implementation is complete.

Port forwarding should be used only when the system is a gateway for the
network.

Hello,

Looks like it's slated for v6.6. Alright :)

P.S. I'll keep watch on the issue ticket

We basically are in a rolling release cycle,
so the whole new firewall module will be out even on 6.5. :)
