Yast refers to /usr/doc/packages/firewall for setting up a firewall/masquerading.

I've read the Linux FAQ, but SuSE has some special setup that seems to be documented in this directory.

All the files in that directory are in German.

Is there a translation to English available?

there is an english howto under: /usr/doc/howto/Firewall-HOWTO.gz Havn't looked at it wether it's is equivalent.

It's not the same. SuSE has some functionailty built into YAST that's not documented in the standard Linux HOWTO's. I may have to disable YAST's boot and just configure it from the manual. If anyone were able to post the howto on a web page, I could use altavista to translate it?

Here is the link to the SuSE Firewall Mini Howto. This Mini-HOWTO should help to install a firewall and/ or masquerading. Have a lot of fun!!!!!! <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/~bb/docs.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/~bb/docs.html</A">http://www.suse.com/~bb/docs.html</A</A>>
