SuSEfirewall2 setup...
by Chris Roubekas 28 Sep '02

28 Sep '02

Dear all, Well I have sent a message in the past and got no reply. Thought I should give it one last try just to be on the safe side... I have a SuSE 7.2 Box set as a DHCP and SAMBA server for a small network with 3 other PCs running Win9X. I have managed to get Squid also up and running so they can log on the internet whenever the server is connected. The problem is that they want to be able to connect to other services such as mirc winmx etc. I have tried some scenarios that are outlined in the SuSEfirewall2 EXAMPLES section and have read the FAQs but have managed nothing! Can someone please help me?? Can someone please tell me what to do? What do I have to configure? Thank you soo much in advance for your help!! Chris

[SLE] yast online update
by Ron Boyer 28 Sep '02

Greetings, (I would have replied privately to doc, but lost his email address) I just performed a fresh install and had the same problem for a few minutes, but after a couple attempts (no reconfig) yast online update worked fine. I connected to server 'ftp.gwdg.de' and was able to get all the yast updates... I'm on my way back for more. Good luck Doc / Best regards, Ron Boyer

brand new Suse 80, sound works on login, and testing in YAst2. If I insert a cd KsCD starts "playing" but no sound. If I look at KMIx everthhing looks ok, Ive moved every setting on and off, no sound any ideas? thanks rob -- The more we disagree, the more chance there is that at least one of us is right.

I'm trying to share my printer using standard TCP/IP printing over a network, but I'm unable to figure out how to do it. I couldn't find anything in the documentation. What do I need to do to share my printer using TCP/IP? Thanks in advance.

AGAIN! task manager, desktops manager, clock and kinternet icon desappeared!
by Blackimp 28 Sep '02

28 Sep '02

Hi I succeded in upgrading kde with 3.0.3 version rpm packages simply NOT installing before the 3.0 version - the problem was the same as in the object: that stuff disappeared after upgrading rpms -. This time I had all working fine. I had some problems after installing the very last version of nVidia modules so I installed again the previous version from a non-graphical terminal. I restarted X and... AGAIN! all those things had desappeared ! >:( Only icons on the left remained. WHAT the hell has happened? Am I suppose to do anything else after I install rpm's upgrade? Please help me or I'll soon need some psichiatric cure :) Blackimp

New synaptic
by Richard Bos 28 Sep '02

28 Sep '02

For the adventureous people using APT in combination with synaptic: there is a new release of synaptic! It looks better than ever. The gtk interface is now the default interface and the wings interface is just supported, but not developed anymore. For this reason I build the gtk version rpm only. There is now support for easy editing of the sources.list file. The new version is available at http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/apt-0.5.4/ -- Have fun :) Richard

SuSE firewall2 extravagance

Hi Everyone. Since opening up the http port with Yast2 under SuSE 8.0 (to be able to serve web pages via apache) /var/log/firewall has grown to enormous proportions with stuff like this: Sep 27 22:11:37 altea kernel: SuSE-FW-DROP-ICMP-CRIT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:50:bf:d6:1d:56:00:60:68:81:10:c7:08:00 SRC=194.179.92.1 DST=192.168.1.2 LEN=56 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=252 ID=5318 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=4 CODE=0 [SRC=192.168.1.2 DST=134.76.11.100 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=60 ID=17091 DF PROTO=TCP INCOMPLETE [8 bytes] ] Sep 27 22:17:18 altea kernel: SuSE-FW-DROP-DEFAULT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:50:bf:d6:1d:56:00:60:68:81:10:c7:08:00 SRC=80.34.65.60 DST=192.168.1.2 LEN=51 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=116 ID=12846 PROTO=UDP SPT=2933 DPT=4668 LEN=31 I close port 80 and all is back calm again. Any security gurus able to give any advice here? Thanks, Steve.
