Repying to my own mail In KMail I received an email with a link. I followed this to download a pdf file. SuSEfirewall responded as below. I could not get the pdf. Any suggestions ?

More progress ! Thanks for that suggestion. I found a line about class routing (not sure what this is) at the bottom of the SuSEfirewall script. Once enabled VMware seems to be working.................in conjunction with FW_DEV_INT="vmnet1 vmnet8"
I have got a permanent ip address from my Internet Service Provider. I wonder if this should go into the script somewhere. For now ippp0 seems to be working ok i.e. accessing the net. Brian Marr

and either allow class routing or set up forwarding.
I do not want it to be accessible to the internet, but accessible to my LAN (at least the Host). Currently SuSEfirewall is dropping VMware packets when I turn it on.

There's no point in crossing out 192.168-addresses. If anyone outside your lan can reach them it's a miracle (or a tremendous blunder on the part of your ISP). Those are private, non-routable addresses.
