Ok that works. Results below

linux:/ # rcSuSEfirewall2 test
Usage: /sbin/rcSuSEfirewall2 {start|stop|status|restart|reload|force-reload}

Now with the options

linux:/ # rcSuSEfirewall2 start
Starting Firewall Initialization: (phase 2 of 3)                         failed

linux:/ # rcSuSEfirewall2 status
Checking the status of the Firewall:

Any type of start brings up a failure.
