I checked on the standard OpenSUSE 11.1 SuSEfirewall setup under YaST -> /etc/sysconfig Editor, Network -> Firewall -> SuSEfirewall2 -> FW_CONFIGURATIONS_EXT includes sshd. Under FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP there is nothing entered; sure it used to be 22 or ssh.
Indeed, on another OpenSUSE 10.3 there is a ssh under FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP, and FW_CONFIGURATIONS_EXT only has vnc activated.
Try to include sshd in FW_CONFIGURATIONS_EXT.
tks, I have: FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="ssh" FW_CONFIGURATIONS_EXT="sshd vnc-httpd vnc-server xorg-x11-server" FW_SERVICES_ACCEPT_EXT="ssh" FW_FORWARD="ssh" They *may* not all be needed, and I may experiment more. I now have access via vnc and ssh. I am setting up a temp machine for a friend of my wife who is confined to a wheel-chair and is nearly my age (gray headed) and low on expendable cash. Her windoz machine (mother-board) went south and she has no way to browse the net and get her email. I had an old machine under the shelf (replaced customer), and she will now learn linux and xfce4 :^). But I doubt she will notice much difference except for not being able to run most wdoz apps. I have set a cron job to give me her address periodically so I can access her machine w/o difficulty and administer her problems :^) tks, -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
