well, what *i* did was apt-get install xfonts-scalable apt-get install freefont then to figure out where to look for more info, dpkg -L freefont and so i browsed to lynx /usr/share/doc/freefont/ where i learned to try xset fp+ /usr/X11/lib/fonts/freefont ...and i thought all would be lovely. sadly, my font menu didn't change, even after restarting (and the stopping, cold, and re-starting from scratch) the x window server. so to answer your question, you can apt-get install some fonts; getting them to work with your setup, ah -- there's the rub. i'm using woody/kde, and xfontsel stubbornly shows only charter clean clearlyu <various> console courier fangsong ti fixed gothic helvetica lucida <various> mincho new century schoolbook newspaper nil open look <various> song ti symbol terminal times utopia at least until the lights come on. anybody know where the switch is? :) -- I use Debian/GNU Linux version 3.0; Linux server 2.4.20-k6 #1 Mon Jan 13 23:49:14 EST 2003 i586 unknown DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #124 from dman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : So you've decided to BLOCK ALL TRAFFIC EXCEPT SSH. What you need to do is specify the port to allow. ssh uses port 22 by default -- With iptables try: iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --dport ssh -j ACCEPT This says that in the input chain, for tcp packets, if the port number matches ssh in /etc/services then accept the packet regardless of IP addresses. (This should give you a pointer towards the necessary ipchains options if you don't have iptables available.)
