Brain burp, can someone tell me how to open a port on FC4, I was thinking it
was iptables, however I can't remember how.

Try /etc/sysconfig/iptables

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport <portnumber> -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT

Of course, assuming you have a rule allowing already established

As root type "iptables -L" and see how your firewall is configurated
