How do you operate the Firewall in Mac OS X Server 10.9.4
Hi,
I recently upgraded to Mavericks Server - Overall the performance seems excellent but I miss some of the configuration options available in earlier versions.
The firewall is extremely confusing to me as I have come across many articles on how to "activate it" "de-activate" it etc.
How to whitelist/blacklist hosts.
BUT they are all dated a few years ago and don't seem to have kept up to date with 10.9.4
Can someone please advise :-
a) How you turn on the firewall - Security? Or Commands given by Apple
b) How to whitelist/blacklist hosts
Would most appreciate it.
Thanks - Rohin
p.s. The instructions (below from Apple) do not seem to work as I keep getting errors re:
No ALTQ support in kernel
ALTQ related functions disabled
No ALTQ support in kernel
ALTQ related functions disabled
pf enabled
