Huh? what does that mean? what do I do with it?
Can you please explain it more specifically?

 

[santoshdj123]

Depending upon which firewall ur using?
if u r using iptables as firewall
then first command will stop the iptables firewall
if ipchains then second comm will work
if shorewall is firewall then last command will stop the firewall.
GOT IT ? ;

The problem is that how do I use the commands? Where do I type in the commands?
But I really appreciate your help.

Isn't that a rather large assumption, that they are using Linux?
