Just a little idea I stumbled upon...
How about having a directory that allows dropping in files as part of packages (e.g. /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2.d/).
Those files could include stuff like - a detailed description of the ports that are relevant to the package - parsable data for SuSEfirewall2, to be able to open (or close) ports based on that information ---8<-------------------------------------------- <susefirewall2-service id="xmpp"> <summary>XMPP/Jabber</summary> <description> Open these ports to allow communication with an XMPP/Jabber server hosted in your network. </description> <ports> <port proto="udp" port="5222" /> <port-range proto="tcp" range="5222-5223"/> </ports> <susefirewall2-service> ---8<-------------------------------------------- (of course, it should be capable of being localized)
I'd like to have that too :-) It's nothing SuSEfirewall2 should deal with though. The YaST firewall module can make use of that information instead. Currently the information about ports is hardcoded in /usr/share/YaST2/modules/SuSEFirewallServices.ycp cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Development V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help@opensuse.org
