https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335811 Summary: SuSEFirewall2 should have a more human readable interface. Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: deanjo@sasktel.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Would it not be possible to make the SuSEFirewall2 yast module more user friendly? I don't see why it can't be made into a interface like what is found on so many router firewalls that the public has become accustom to. What I mean by that is a simple http interface like what is found on something like DD-WRT. Many people that I know simply disable it because the documentation for it is poor and when they have to start editing configuration files by hand it scares them. Perhaps something like the sysinfo:/ plug in except you type in firewall:/ and it takes you to a pleasant http interface. Remote access capability to the firewall would be nice too. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Whether or not yast should have an http interface is already discussed elsewhere. Specific suggestions how to improve yast's firewall UI are certainly appreciated though. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335811#c3 --- Comment #3 from Lukas Ocilka 2007-10-25 01:27:31 MST --- Yes, but please, keep in mind it has to be YaST UI :) No web-UI is currently supported. The only web-UI support we could support in the future will be probably only a web-interface to the current YaST modules (such as ncurses or GTK+ interface does). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The release of Leopard has been taking much of my free time lately. Here is an example of a straight forward, easy to understand port forwarding. Presets are alright but they should also display the ports that they use and have the option of changing them. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335811#c9 --- Comment #9 from Dean Hilkewich 2007-11-16 18:35:45 MST --- Then that capability to SuSEfirewall should be added. It can be done, as DD-WRT too uses iptables and it is able to create such a interface. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
