    Is there a better (faster) way to set up hte firewall in OS X Server? Is htere a file that I can edit by hand to add allow’s and then block all hte other ports?
    Does anyone happen to have a good file that blocks everything but the web/email/ftp/dns/applesoftware/etc ports?

    Thanks!

    Just a thought, but would using the .conf file from an OS X client work? Or at least provide you with the bulk of the filter info already plugged in?

    Cheers.

    Which file controls this?

    Honestly, I’m not too sure since the values changed by the Firewall pref pane is stored in:

    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist

    which is not exactly *Nix. Maybe take a look to see where Brickhouse, etc. store their changes?

    Cheers.
