Hi, I tried to set up SuSE Firewall from SuSE 6.4. Starting with /sbin/init.d/firewall start was successful. So i did init S, init 2. And that was the last i did. Firewall first run .... pppoed starting ... (in /var/log/messages: all connections on 53 DENied) ... masquerading failed. Login prompt: i typed root <RETURN>, then i typed my password <RETURN> and the login time exceeded. I did not activate FW_PROTECT_FROM_INTERNAL, but i could not login. When rebooting (with rescue disk, changing FW_START in /etc/rc.config) without firewall, but with masquerading, everything worked fine. After manually starting firewall, i found in log a deny for 192.168.2.2:138 (what is the firewall) to 192.168.2.255:138, what i do not understand. Please could anyone post the right parameters to RTFM. Kind regards, Christian
