I still have no idea how to open the ssh port.
From the quick look I took at "firewall-config", you click the'ssh' box on the right hand side, and save the config. Something like that.
There is clearly a bit of a learning curve here.
If you do that, on the next boot you have to redo everything. By default, all changes are temporary. In "options" you have to click on "Runtime to permanent", or previously switch configuration to Permanent. Ah: the "Help" menu only has an "About" box. There are things I have no clue how to use. For instance, I can select the tab on "Services" and I see useful ones like ftp or nfs. But I have no idea if they are active or not, and how to activate them. I can only add services or edit them. Similarly for "Helpers". I rather hoped that "helper" stood for "wizard", but far from it. I go to the documentation site. http://www.firewalld.org/documentation/helper/ "A firewalld helper defines the configuration that are needed to be able to use a netfilter connection tracking helper if automatic helper assignment is turned off, which is then the secure use of connection tracking helpers." I understand nothing... "This can be achieved wither with the kernel default setting for nf_conntrack_helper, a sysctl setting of net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_helper or with the AutomaticHelpers setting in the firewalld.conf file." "A firewalld helper can be a list of local ports, a kernel module and a fmaily definition." Whatisthat? There is a further link to "examples" which looks chineese to me. This no documentation on the YaST firewall module... - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
