1) SuSEfirewall2 does not stealth port 113 but rather shows the port as closed. Is there a simple remedy for this or must we accept it as is? 2) I have not dug into any docs just yet but is there a doc somewhere that explains the output format for firewall log items? 3) Does anyone know of a port scanner (online/free) that will do the full range of ports not just the most common? Appreciate the help! kev

Look at the script /sbin/SuSEfirewall2, search thru it for 113. You will see where you can change it to make it stealthmode. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation

Trust me, you don't want a DROP rule for port 113. It would slow things down greatly. some things would even break completely, with certain mail servers for instance. You're not invisible on the net even with everything "stealthed" anyway so it really doesn't matter Anders
