anyway, I think openSUSE don't allow enough importance to the firewall problem. I mean the Susefirewall2 is said to be extremely good (by the dev) and I'm pretty sure it is, but it is so little documented that this makes it useless... Actually, I find the config file (/etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2) to be well commented, and the best documentation for it. With the pretty clear comments and examples there, it makes it quite manageable to configure the firewall. I would hardly call it useless with all the commented material in that file, and actually found it most useful to have the "documentation" right where I needed it. Trying to use the Yast module to configure it can be hard sometimes, as you miss out on some of the comments, but with an editor it seems quite straight forward to me. YMMV
