Requests for any other services should be automatically refused. A Linux machine can be configured to apply firewall rules at the kernel level through a program called iptables. Creating table rules isn't all that difficult; the syntax can be learned without too much fuss. But, in the interest of simplifying your life, many Linux distributions ha
