[Bug 296997] New: /sbin/ SuSEfirewall2 incorrectly parses FW_TRUSTED_NETS in /etc/sysconfig/ SuSEfirewall2: protocol is supposed to be optional, but /sbin/ SuSEfirewall2 requires it.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=296997 Summary: /sbin/SuSEfirewall2 incorrectly parses FW_TRUSTED_NETS in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2: protocol is supposed to be optional, but /sbin/SuSEfirewall2 requires it. Product: SUSE LINUX 10.0 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Pro 9.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: baker@usgs.gov QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer NOTE: I have SuSE Linux Professional 9.3. I do not know if this bug exists in later versions of SuSE Linux. I cannot find anything when I search using FW_TRUSTED_NETS as the search term, so I assume later versions still use SuSEfirewall2 and it has not been fixed. I received the following e-mail this morning for the bug report I submitted yesterday: Please submitt the following information to BUGZILLA https://bugzilla.novell.com/index.cgi
