I���ve have 4 x 12.3 Default Installations. 3 KDE 1 Gnome
On inspection each and every PC showed the NIC as not being assigned to be in
ANY Zone of the Suse2Firewall.
You can easily identify this by watching the boot log from ESC during Start-up
and you find that Suseefirewall doesn���t even start as such.

In the unlikely event you cant validate this I'll do a fresh install for you
and send you logs but sending you Yast Logs for any installation that is moths
old, may yield little practice help due size and other extraneous issues.

O.T Thanks for bashing out the Bug fixes and wow thanks for putting the
graphical Bug numbers back on screen. A development project without public
access to numbers as it has been for a few years when it disappeared off our
screens....well I wont say the obvious but Hey, unreal work being done to fix
bugs if the daily updates are any example
