Question Firewall stopping Peer to Peer File sharing
I am looking for advice on a router. I am new to Linux and am trying to use Limewire and Ktorent and can make no connection. Limewire indicates I have a firewall. I have a Linksys router WRK54G and my guess is that is the problem. I have spent hours upon hours trying to get it to work using info from this site and Limewire.com to get past the firewall problem with no success. I think I did all the router changes thru the web I could and am having no success. I am wondering if there is a router which works with broadband cable I can purchase which would alleviate the firewall problem. The Linksys cuts out often (not as much with Freespire) so an upgrade may help with that also. If anyone thinks my problem is not with my wireless router I would appreciate direction there also

fwb_iosacl

fwb_pix(1)							 Firewall Builder							fwb_pix(1)

NAME

       fwb_ipt - Policy compiler for Cisco IOS ACL

SYNOPSIS

       fwb_iosacl [-vV] [-d wdir] [-4] [-6] [-i] -f data_file.xml object_name

DESCRIPTION

       fwb_iosacl  is  firewall  policy compiler component of Firewall Builder (see fwbuilder(1)). Compiler reads objects definitions and firewall
       description from the data file specified with "-f" option and generates resultant Cisco IOS ACL configuration file.  The  configuration	is
       written	to  the  file  with the name the same as the name of the firewall object, plus extension ".fw". Compiler generates extended access
       lists for Cisco routers running IOS v12.x using "ip access-list <name>" syntax. Compiler  also  generates  "ip  access-group"  commands	to
       assign  access  lists  to interfaces. Generated ACL configuration can be uploaded to the router manually or using built-in installer in the
       fwbuilder(1) GUI.

       The data file and the name of the firewall objects must be specified on the command line. Other command line parameters are optional.

OPTIONS

       -4     Generate iptables script for IPv4 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer to IPv6 addresses, compiler will skip these
	      rules.   Options	"-4"  and  "-6"  are  exclusive.  If  neither option is used, compiler tries to generate both parts of the script,
	      although generation of the IPv6 part is controlled by the option "Enable IPv6 support" in the "IPv6"  tab  of  the  firewall  object
	      advanced settings dialog.  This option is off by default.

       -6     Generate iptables script for IPv6 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer to IPv6 addresses, compiler will skip these
	      rules.

       -f FILE
	      Specify the name of the data file to be processed.

       -d wdir
	      Specify working directory. Compiler creates file with ACL configuration in this directory.  If this parameter is missing, then  gen-
	      erated ACL will be placed in the current working directory.

       -v     Be verbose: compiler prints diagnostic messages when it works.

       -V     Print version number and quit.

       -i     When this option is present, the last argument on the command line is supposed to be firewall object ID rather than its name
