SFW2-DROP-BCASTe means "SuSEfirewall2 DROP Broadcast so i would suggest checking for FW_ALLOW_FW_BROADCAST and DEV_EXT_BCAST ? you could also start "/sbin/SuSEfirewall2 test" if you are in a secure environment (test mode lets anything pass but logs). cheers -- BINGO: work smarter --- Engelbert Gruber -------+ SSG Fintl,Gruber,Lassnig / A6170 Zirl Innweg 5b / Tel. ++43-5238-93535 ---+
