I understand the desire to lock things up for people's own good, especially by default. However, there is no feedback for users when the firewall has blocked applications from communicating. Instead, the features just silently fail or don't work. Ah well. :) “Open the right ports on your firewall: 3689 TCP and 5353 UDP”

I find Fedora’s firewall setup crippling for usability of almost any cool networked features. I understand the desire to lock things up for people’s own good, especially by default. However, there is no feedback for users when the firewall has blocked applications from communicating. Instead, the features just silently fail or don’t work.

Ah well. :)
