From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: My security setting is set to high, with ppp0 as a trusted device. I have "customize" selected. I do not allow *any* incoming services, but still have entries from outside in my apache log file. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Security level: high 2. Select "customize" 3. Select "ppp0" as a trusted device. 4. Ensure nothing under "allow incoming" is selected. Additional info: Rebooting doesn't change anything.
I thought that a "trusted device" meant that you trusted (ie. allowed) all traffic from that device, and the firewall setting only applied to non-trusted devices.
This is expected behaviour, trusted devices are exempt from the firewall rules. See www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/ custom-guide/ch-basic-firewall.html
I think the manual could be clearer: "..Selecting any of the Trusted Devices allows access *to* your system for all traffic *from* that device.." and the gui should give a warning.
