Can't you check what the firewall is blocking?  I don't use the suse
firewall setup, but my own firewall script writes a log record for
everything that is not let through.


/var/log/firewall

Thanks, Patrick!

Looked there - all that was blocked were some IGMP packets.

Now as for where the problem lies, it appears that it is avahi-daemon
(MDNS) that does the bulk of the sniffing work. I am trying to see
what it needs and how to allow it to find those printers...

Boris.
