[Bug 432425] New: SuSEfirewall uses illegal protocol type
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=432425 Summary: SuSEfirewall uses illegal protocol type Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer On a hacked up system where the netcfg package is not installed, i.e. /etc/protocols is missing, SFW gives the following output: 20:17 (none):/proc/net # /etc/init.d/SuSEfirewall2_setup start Starting Firewall Initialization (phase 2 of 2) SuSEfirewall2: Warning: no interface active ip6tables v1.4.2-rc1: unknown protocol `icmp' specified Try `ip6tables -h' or 'ip6tables --help' for more information. done Now, a system without netcfg may be non-conforming BUT this shows a nice error, because ip6tables -p icmp is a bug; it will *never* match, because you are trying to find an ICMPv4 Extension Header in an IPv6 packet, and that chance is virtually nonexistent. May affect other SUSE Linux product versions than just openSUSE 11.0. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
