I copied SuSEfirewall2-3.4-6.noarch.rpm off the DVD, ran
"rpm -Uvh --force SuSEfirewall2-3.4-6.noarch.rpm", and rebooted. Nothing
changed as far as I could tell.

Done, but I copied the old one before reinstalling the rpm, and the "new"
file is identical.
Is there some way that a hardware problem could be causeing masquerade to
choke under one OS but not another? This computer was inside a house that
had a fire with major smoke damage, and I had to replace the CDROM, the CDRW
(now a DVD burner), and the 3.5" floppy drive (and I tossed a 5.25" floppy
drive). I replaced the external serial port modem as well. Come to think of
it, I replaced the replacement for the CDROM, too. The USB card reader has
always worked fine under SuSE 8.2, but after the fire, I installed 9.3, and
the card reader didn't work at all under 9.3 until I removed the CDRW. I
recently installed 10.0 as well. The card reader has been flakey under 9.3
and 10.0, but I noticed that the floppy was appearing on "My Computer" even
though the drive was empty, so I disabled it in the BIOS, and now the card
reader seems to work under 10.0 (but still not 9.3). Is there any way that a
hardware problem could cause udev under 10.0 (but not 9.3) to have problems
with masquerading over the modem through a serial port?
Alternately, is there any basis for suspecting that differences in IPv6
between 9.3 and 10.0 (or my amateurish configuration thereof) could cause
masquerading to fail? "grep -i ipv6 /etc/sysconfig/network/config" comes up
empty under 10.0, but under 9.3 I get:
USE_IPV6=yes
I'm puzzled that there are no quotation marks around the yes.
Under both 9.3 and 10.0, in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2, I find
FW_IPv6=""
FW_IPv6_REJECT_OUTGOING=""
Under both 9.3 and 10.0, in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager, I find
KDE_USE_IPV6="yes"
Thank you,
Peter Taylor
