Greetings, Having a good look at fwlbuilder, and it is good. But I have an existing fwl (a BIG one) and don't really wish to rebuild it in fwlbuilder from scratch, So I must ask if there away to get fwl builder to import my current fwl so that I might be able to use fwl builder for maintaining my fwl. Of course on all my new fwl servers I start from scratch. TIA Chadley

Chadley Well Morning Chad...
Guess you in Europe also? The answer to your question is no. There is no way you can import an existing firewall into fwbuilder. Been asked serveral times in the fwbuilder lists. Jerry

Hi Jerry, As a kid "MAGIVER" was my favourite program, So I will just have to look at the way fwlbuilder constructs its save file and work on that then, But don't be doubt full my friend, there is always a way in linux, when and if I figure it out, I will let you know.... Thanks Chadley P.S. I am South African, and Good Morning to you too . :)
Hi, I've a machine that has a 24 channel SATA RAID card (currently using 12 of them). I've 12 500GB SATA disks making a 5TB logical drive. Now I want to create a 4GB partition for the OS and the rest LVM but it seems to be screwing Suse up, I've installed the driver and it sees the RAID card and the size of the partition correctly but won't let me manage it as the page on Yast shows up blank. It makes no diff which version of Suse I use (tried 9.1, 9.3 & 10 both 32 and 64 bit versions). I tried using Fedora but although that sees the drive it won't let me create an LVM partition that size, if I format the whole lot I end up with a 500GB partition and the rest is blank space. I could use Fedora and split the logical drive up but that has big issues with the rest of the machine. Is it simply because a 5TB drive is too big for Linux to cope with which is why I'm having these problems? Matthew

What happens if you just use fdisk?

It wouldn't be my first guess, but it's possible. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- http://www.spamchek.com/ - managed anti-spam and anti-virus solution.
