You should decide if you want update completly to Suse 7.3 or not.
in the ftp there are various files, wich one i have to download? and after that what i have to do?...
If You don`t want a complete update, you will find versions for Suse 7.1 under: http://www.suse.de/en/support/download/index.html http://www.suse.de/en/support/download/linuks/index.html
I would like to know what i have to configure to surf in the Net and have the security that nobody introduces in my system.
If you configure your modem with yast2, there will be a checkbox wich sounds like "activate firewall ...". If you use it, on every startup the personal-firewall will be activated. I'm not sure if this functionality was alredy in 7.1 available.
I use SuSE 7.1 kernel 2.4, what is your opinion, do i have to change the Kernel, KDE and Xfree to a new version?
To install kde should be easy. But at the same time upgrading the kernel and xfree without upgrading the whole system depends on your needs. If you don`t need new features from xfree or the kernel you don't need to update just these components. Ingo Kappler
