SuSEfirewall2 *IS* iptables. You can always use the provided hook functions to insert your own rules if the configuration options for SuSEfirewall2 are not sufficient. You don't need to start from scratch writing a completely new script.
Of course FW2 is iptables, I didn't want to imply anything different. But in my experience it is easier (at least for debugging) to create a whole script instead of adding rules to FW2, but thats just my 2eurocents. After all, I'm using "handmade" rulesets since ipchains, so maybe I'm only out of date ;) As a GUI for iptables I sometimes use fwbuilder, depending on the mood I'm in (and the WS I'm on).
