I was addressing your question "Port 50 has no entry in /etc/services, what
is it for?"
Sorry, I don't know about the gui --I normally use a bunch of commands for
this.
Why are they there? Well if at install time I chose to enable SSH and Mail
in the
firewall section, then ports 22 and 25 will appeared enabled in the iptables
files.
