So I uninstalled firewalld with zypper and locked it out. I then loaded susefirewall2 and copied over my old SuSEfirewall2 script. It works like a charm. This will do for now, I need to get this host to its user. Did you try the migration script? Perhaps it would generate a working firewalld config from SuSEfirewal2
I thought about that, Carlos, but didn't. I was so disappointed with the yast firewalld GUI I gave up. The old SuSEfirewall2 GUI was really good, it was intuitive and I could easily do what was needed. But the firewalld GUI reminded me of why I don't like RedHat and stopped using it decades ago. I'll get back to it when I can find the time, hopefully 15.1 is a bit better for me.
I'm still using SuSEfirewall2 on three 15.0 machines, till I find the optimistic mood to try the migration. I only use firewalld on a machine that was born on 15.0.
BTW, one good feature of the old SuSEfirewall2 GUI was that it created an ascii configuration file that was well commented and easy to modify. Does firewalld have such a file? There must be one somewhere...
Probably. I think it has a CLI interface. I see "/etc/sysconfig/firewalld" and directory /etc/firewalld, and in it there is file /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf with comments. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
