Opening ports 8015/8016 restricted to selected IP addresses
Hello there
I'm using a vendor-supplied application on RHEL4 that includes a built-in Tcl webserver. The webserver is working but I cannot access it from any computer other than the host workstation. I suspect that the firewall is blocking ports 8015/8016. I have two questions:
1. How do I open these ports without compromising too much security?
2. Is it possible to open these ports but restrict access to selected IP addressed only?
Thanks.

Hi guys,
I need to open ports on my AIX machine. The only way I know is to use service name to disable or enable ports which are used by the services. I found in /etc/services that the ports are unidentified. Btw, I want to open port number 11576 and 11577. Need help on this one. Thanks! :) (1 Reply)
