[opensuse-factory] Yast's firewall module does not list any interfaces
Hi, I have two machines running TW, and yast's firewall doesn't list any interfaces for any of them. Both of them are running NetworkManager. Is this a known issue? Should I file a bug report?

Hi Robert, The YaST code responsible for gathering the interface list relies on interface configuration files (ie. ifcfg-X) being present in /etc/sysconfig/network. It's possible that during installation, if NetworkManager is selected over Wicked, these files are not generated and hence SuSEfirewall does not 'see' these interfaces. Could you verify if you have the necessary ifcfg files related to your interfaces? -Karol

$ ls -1 /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg* /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-lo /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template Same situations for both machines. One was a fresh TW install (laptop) and another an upgrade from 12.3 (desktop) Robert -- http://robert.muntea.nu/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

My take is that this is expected behaviour then. Since your system does not contain any ifcfg- files for your interfaces (save for loopback), YaST firewall will not 'see' any interfaces either. Try creating the ifcfg- files matching the interface names present on your system. I suspect they can even be empty files, since you're not using Wicked to actually configure the interfaces. Then re-try the firewall module. -Karol

Yes, I have seen more reports. I don't know if there is a bugzilla.
Now there is at least one :-) https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=931912 Robert -- http://robert.muntea.nu/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
