I'd expect the 10.1 SuSEfirewall2 rpm to work on 9.3, you don't need to update the whole distro.
On 10.1 I have SuSEfirewall2-3.4_SVNr142-5 (Sun 23 Apr 2006) on 9.3 SuSEfirewall2-3.3-18.4 (Thu 30 Jun 2005)
Aren't there any new netfilter/iptables features introduced on 10.0 or 10.1 used by SuSEfirewall2-3.4_SVNr142-5 ?
I usually find Shorewall (shorewall.net) much easier to deal with for anything but the most simple of firewalls. Its also vastly better documented. It still relies of netfilter, but the author really knows his stuff, and makes it easy to understand. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
