I am fairly new to this list and fedora 7. I have been trying to export an NFS
drive outside the machine. I have checked to make sure the mount is working, by
doing ls /net/orion. It shows the drive without any problem.

I use the administrator menu firewall and SELINUX and checked off the NFS item.
I rebooted the machine an a freign machine is not able to see the drive. I open
up the service and stopped iptables, and the directoy appears on the foreign
machine with no problem. restarted iptables, and the directory disappears.

My first question is how do i change the firewall rules to allow it through? Is
there a site that gives examples on opening this portion of the firewall?
