I recently had the need to type a hash (#) into a Remote Desktop session from my OSX desktop to a Windows server. Unfortunately to get a hash on a UK keyboard requires pressing ALT + 3 as SHIFT + 3 results in a pound (£). Pressing ALT + 3 through the remote desktop connection didn’t do anything useful so I was somewhat stuck.

ip6tables and CentOS 5.6
Having just recently obtained an IPv6 address for my server, I figured it would be a good idea to setup a firewall on the IPv6 address. Although most services are bound to the main IPv4 address only, it doesn’t hurt to be cautious.
