do we have a firewall in the phone?

 

Hello,

While connected to a Wifi zone, I launched in the phone from the
terminal app:

$ nc -l 12345

and from my netbook, connected to the same Wifi zone:

# telnet 192.168.1.11 12345
Trying 192.168.1.11...
Connected to 192.168.1.11.
Escape character is '^]'.
aaaa

and ofc the connect worked and the typed chars 'aaaa' show up in the above
nc-session?

I.e. the phone is completely open on all ports!!! Can I activate and
configure some inbound firewall in the phone?

Thanks

	matthias
