Make sure the protocol line says as above and not Protocol 2,1 or Protocol 1,2
Thanks John, I made that change. Do you have any idea why my default route has that strange destination? I went through Yast and by all that I can see it should not be that but should be the IP of my isp unless I am completely wrong. As I recall, it used to be the IP (24.233.51.9) that I get when the network is started. I did a whois on the name and got that it was available. Strange!!! ra
Unless you want the whole world to connect to your ssh, you might also consider to give access to ssh based upon IP adress. This may be done from the firewall, but also from tcp_wrappers (by editing /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny. See those files for examples.). tcp_wrappers works even when the firewall is down. Putting a cheap DSL router in front of your SuSE machine will help against misconfigured firewalls, if this is relevant for your network setup. I use such a setup at home, even though each and every machine behind also has a firewall. However, the logs I get is only from what the DSL router lets through. Cheers, Sigfred.
