RE: [suse-security] SuSEfirewall2 errors on SuSE linux 8.1
Hi Fiorenza,
From: Fiorenza Meini [mailto:fmeini@robinson.it] Hi there! On my SuSE Linux 8.1 professional box I configured the firewall and when I run SuSEfirewall2 I receive this kind of message: /sbin/SuSEfirewall2: line 696: test: 10.10.0.0/16: integer expression expected /sbin/SuSEfirewall2: line 696: test: 10.10.0.0/16: integer expression expected /sbin/SuSEfirewall2: line 696: test: 10.10.0.0/16: integer expression expected /sbin/SuSEfirewall2: line 696: test: 10.10.0.0/16: integer expression expected iptables v1.2.7a: Maximum prefix length 29 for --log-prefix
Please, what does it mean?
My firewall configuration is attached.
No it's not - please include your configuration in the text (run 'cat /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2|grep -v "^#" | grep -v "^$"' to leave out all comments and empty lines). The last error "iptables v1.2.7a: Maximum prefix length 29 for --log-prefix" means that you cannot assign more than 29 characters as your log-prefix (a short description included in your log-message). Have a look at the directive FW_LOG="...." and especially check for the second ". Sounds like it got lost somewhere.
Thanks Fiorenza <<SuSEfirewall2>>
regards, Stefan
