   OK, I believe you :-)   
   My "confusion" comes from:   
      
   1. I click on "Allowed Services" on the left side.   
   2. On Allowed Services for Selected zone I have External Zone.   
   3. I choose, in the Service to Allow, VNC and "add".   
   	Then vnc server side works.   
   	SSH is already there. I think that's because I chose ssh during   
   installation. An it is working since the beginning.   
      
   4. Choosing Internal Zone on Allowed Services every allowed service is   
   grayed except DHCPv4 Server.   
   5. At the bottom, Protect Firewall from Internal Zone is deselected.   
   	Clicking "help", there was the following sentence:   
    "By deselecting Protect Firewall from Internal Zone, you remove   
   protection from the zone. All services and ports in your internal   
   network will be unprotected."   
      
   That's why I am confused and the reason for my questions.   
      
   I'll go with this solution. Later I'll try to learn a little bit more   
   about this.   
      
   Thank you.
