Hi, I've been upgrading to Firewall 1.8 and had a problem within SuSEfirewall itself. It appears to wedge under SuSE 6.2 on an ipchains DENY for IP@ppp0 which happens to be my dynamic dialup IP. This happens in the IP Spoofing & Circumventrion [sic] section where there is a for j in $DEV_INT_NET $FW_LOCALNETS; do $IPCHAINS -A input -j "$DENY" -i $i -s $j $LDC done It wedges on $FW_LOCALNETS which is set to IP@ppp0. Omitting $FW_LOCALNETS allows the script to run to completion and the firewall to be "set up". I don't (yet) understand what is trying to be achieved in this particular section of code. I especially don't understand why ipchains would wedge. Perhaps it's because there is no DNS as such on the firewall. I'm also getting other warnings about ipchains not understanding IP@ppp0. Have I messed up the rc.firewall configuration? -- Real Name: Bernd Felsche Email: nospam.bernie@perth.DIALix.com.au http://www.perth.dialix.com.au/~bernie - Private HP
