Hello,
Can I upgrade from using ipchains to iptables by using the SuseFirewall2 rpm from the 7.3 area (I am using 7.2 which doesn't have FW2)?
Yes. Its just a shell script.
Also, there is an upgrade to version 5.0 in the 7.3 updates area for the older (ipchains-based) SuSEfirewall. Why is this update not also in the 7.2 area?
Don't know... :)
Does anyone know what this update is for?
How about bugfixes? Enhancements?

Thanks. I was just curious as to why no equivalent update had appeared for the SuSEfirewall in 7.2
since, as you say, it's just a script. Having looked at the RPM, the difference seems to do with IPSec but
I'm not sure what exactly (without installing it anyway).
