From a newbie (but willing to learn...)
Is it possible to have the SuSE personal firewall ON, and at the same time allow incoming connections from a few TRUSTED IP's? If so, what would be the way to go? -- BEST WISHES, Alberto MMM \|/ www __^__ (o o) @ @ (O-O) /(o o)\ +-----ooO-(_)-Ooo---oOO-(_)-OOo---oOO--(_)--OOo---oOO==(_)==OOo-----+ | Alberto Santana | | Ph.D. Student Email: santana@qtp.ufl.edu | | University of Florida Phone: (352) 392-3010 | | Quantum Theory Project Home: (352) 379-9938 | | 2301 NPB # 92, P.O.

Hi Alberto, I think you should take the SuSEFirewall package to do this. Ciao ;-) Robert Rottscholl - DE Alberto Santana wrote:

the config file therefore is /etc/rc.config.d/firewall2.rc.config. with a grep -v ^# /etc/rc.config.d/firewall2.rc.config options set there you can see FW_TRUSTED_NETS="" # 10.) # Which services should be accessible from trusted hosts/nets? # # Define trusted hosts/networks (doesnt matter if they are internal or # external) and the TCP and/or UDP services they are allowed to use. # # Choice: leave FW_TRUSTED_NETS empty or any number of computers and/or # networks, seperated by a space. e.g. "172.20.1.1 172.20.0.0/16" # Optional, enter a protocol after a comman, e.g. "1.1.1.1,icmp" # Optional, enter a port after a protocol, e.g. "2.2.2.2,tcp,22" # But take care, if you open services to outer world.
