Well, I upgraded from F17 (a box with two virtual machines) and
firewalld did not set correct rules for the host (they were and are in
iptables - but were ignored).
The docs says the good thing is iptables
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Security_Guide/sect-Security_Guide-Firewalls.html
In fact we get wrong settings in firewalld (documentation here
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FirewallD?rd=FirewallD/ )
I am a sysadmin, I manage this crap (seems alpha stage), but other
innocent users?
