Iptables – Does uninstalling psa-firewall (plesk firewall module) disable firewall

firewalliptablesmediatemple

I have a dv server with media temple and the plesk firewall module is causing a tonne of grief, it use to work, not anymore… unable to edit firewall rules through the module etc.

Does uninstalling this module, what i assume is known as the psa-firewall service prevent the firewall to work? its running centos 5 and the firewall looks to be iptables.

Best Answer

that is just the package for plesk to interface with iptables with.. removing that and your firewall will still run.. to turn off your firewall

service iptables stop

if you don't want it to run on reboot

chkconfig iptables off
