Hallo, on the Suse8.0 prof. with Susefirewall2, all internal requests on the external port was blocked. log: May 12 07:13:43 fs1-cccbbs kernel: SuSE-FW-NO_ACCESS_INT->FWEXT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:48:54:1c:a8:fb:00:c0:26:75:3b:28:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.5 DST=217.85.190.27 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=29671 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1645 DPT=6667 WINDOW=64240 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (020405B401010402) May 12 07:13:46 fs1-cccbbs kernel: SuSE-FW-NO_ACCESS_INT->FWEXT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:48:54:1c:a8:fb:00:c0:26:75:3b:28:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.5 DST=217.85.190.27 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=29675 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1645 DPT=6667 WINDOW=64240 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (020405B401010402) May 12 07:13:52 fs1-cccbbs kernel: SuSE-FW-NO_ACCESS_INT->FWEXT IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:48:54:1c:a8:fb:00:c0:26:75:3b:28:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.5 DST=217.85.190.27 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=29683 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1645 DPT=6667 WINDOW=64240 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (020405B401010402) Where in the config I can told him, what he must do with such requests. Why does he blocks that in the default configuration, is it insecure, when I talk from internal to external? Internal: 192.168.0.1 on eth0, External: DynamicIP on ppp0. Best regards, Jost Schöler.
