Spec Name or Url: http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora-extras/fwrestart.spec SRPM Name or Url: http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora-extras/fwrestart-1.01-3.src.rpm Description: This program can automatically detect when changes to the firewall block the administrative shell session, and to take corrective action fwrestart uses terminal auto-response codes to safely re-start firewall rules over a remote shell session. It sends a request to your terminal (xterm, for example), which responds back automatically. When that response is received, ensuring that fwrestart can communicate with the terminal, fwrestart then issues a command to restart the firewall. It then tries another request to the terminal, and if that is not received within 5 seconds, a command is run to clear the firewall and an appropriate error is generated.
good: + license OK and included + source matches upstream + code not content + specfile OK + rpmlint OK + builds on FC4 This is a very simple package (a single python script) and I don't see anything the matter with it so its APPROVED.
Thanks. Built fine for development, and branches requested for fc3/fc4. closing with NEXTRELEASE per new package process.
Setting fedora-cvs flag here to request EL-4 and EL-5 branches for this package.
