SSH / X server question:	by Freakazoid	2002-06-25 00:16:41

Openening a port to the outside world, and opening one for localhost, is two different things. I mean, I can block all ports on my firewall, but I can still SSH to localhost, and I can still work on X (which by default connects to localhost). There is no point in blocking ports on the loopback device, execpt in some very rare circumtances. Refried
