RE: [suse-security] SuSEfirewall2 and viewing your own internal w eb site
is there a solution to the problem:
suse log file: SuSE-FW-NO_ACCESS_INT->FWEXT this error occurs when i define a link on a web based page or forum that points back at my firewall's external address.
Yes. Use DNS and set up split horizon DNS. I.e. have www.yourdom.ain resolve to the private IP address the WWW server is actually on internally. This is pretty trivial with djbdns and quite easy with BIND as well (some may even find that easier). Tobias
