SuSE-Firewall and iptables
I am new to linux networking, can someone tell me where to find thorough information about SuSE Firewall setup and IP tables. This is a description of my need: I have a single pc at home with internet access through eth0. I have aliased my machine at eth0:0 with an internal address for my companies network. I am using VPND to connect to my company network on port 16004. I need to correctly configure the firewall and open a whole in the firewall for the company server that I connect to, as well as any of the companies intranet servers with addresses like 10.222.xxx.xxx. Can someone give me some advice on how to accomplish this. I have read the /usr/share/doc/packages/SuSEfirewall2/EXAMPLES as well as the /usr/share/doc/packages/SuSEfirewall2/README but to be honest it is a little over my head. A simpler explaination would be helpful. Thanks, D.C.
