It is my understanding that EC2 images generally have their inbuilt
firewalls turned off because people are expected to use security
groups instead. Is this correct? If so, how can I help that happen
for the next Fedora release's EC2 images?
correct me if im wrong but i thought that the amazon security groups
only protects you from whats outside of amazons network. the hosts
firewall protects you from being attacked from inside of ec2.
