Hi! Currently, i am writing a webmin module for configuring a SuSEfirewall. In this module i need to know if the firewall is already running.=20 How can i see, if there is a running SuSEfirewall on the current system? Some things i already figured out: - SuSEfirewall ist not found via ps-command. ( Only when the script is = called there is a process ) - using a ipchains -L outputs the current rules. If no firewall is set = the default policies are to accept all ( okay, half of the work is done , but....). But it does = not show if the rules are set by SuSEfirewall. There might be another firewall lurking in the system. I = don=B4t think, that i should overwrite ipchains-rules if there is another wall. How can i be sure of the "running" SuSEfirewall? Anyone got an idea? Please send answers per PM. Thanks Dieter Springer
