Is there a command to turnon/off firewall in FP64?(SOLVED)

[gychang]

I need to turnoff the firewall during use of pureftp in the server and gftp on the client in my home network. I am trying to make a small script that will turnoff during when I am using gftp. Is there a command to turnon and turnoff the firewall in FP64?

Firewall is started/stopped by script /etc/init.d/rc.firewall
Like any system service in /etc/init.d it can be controlled with the start|stop parameter.

So to turn off your firewall run /etc/init.d/rc.firewall stop
Start it again with /etc/init.d/rc.firewall start

(Why not configure firewall for ftp?)

I first tried as seen here but did not seem to work (message "entering passive mode and hangs)... Your suggestions work perfectly with commands.

If you are trying to set specific ports open.
Do that.
But do not have selected "when this button is checked a generic firewall is generated" .
That makes apply button, still produce the generic firewall, no matter what you select for individual ports.

Select the ports to open.
I think you also need to now select "your firewall is configured".
Then select apply.
