trq Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Ports can be closed easily on linux using iptables which can easily be accessed via exec. If you close the port your http server is listening on however you will no longer be able to make requests to the http server. You might want to go into more detail about what exactly it is your trying to do and also why you think you need to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
