When switching to runlevel 3 the firewall is going to be initialized. Normally I get the green done message when a service is startet or the red failed message. But the firewall-initalisation-steps 1-3 produce neither the green nor the red message. At the end of system startup the system tells me: Failure services in runlevel 3: SuSEfirewall_init, SuSEfirewall_setup, SuSEfirewall_final. But the file /etc/rc.config.d/firewall.rc.config is cinfigured in the right way !

I'm not sure what connection you are on, but if you are on a dial-up ppp like I am, then it will fail on boot up. To make sure everything was OK, I contacted Marc at SUSE and he said not to worry about the boot errors because there is no connection at that time. If you do have a dial up ppp connection, I guess it fails at level 2, right? The Firewall can be started from the /etc/ppp/ip-up script. If you are on any other connection, ignore the above. Joss
