ATTENTION: there seems to be a possible bug (or did i misconfigure harden_suse)??
After running harden_suse no remote login to my machine was possible. The fault can be found in /etc/hosts.deny
cat /etc/hosts.deny # # This config file was changed by the harden_suse script to enforce a # strict security on your system. # This configuration was changed on the Sat Apr 14 13:36:26 CEST 2001. # harden_suse v3.2 (07-April-2001) by Marc Heuse

ALL: ALL EXCEPT localhost ^^^^^^ *UNCOMMENT* this entry, otherwise it won't be possible to log in using ssh or telnet
