Hello, yesterday I synced a PocketPC over synce to my SuSE 8.2 box. The interface is USB-Port ttyUSB1. The sync functined fine without the SuSEfirewall2 (stoped). If I started the Firewall again, there are the following messages in /var/log/messages: Jan 11 20:22:56 linux kernel: SuSE-FW-DROP-ANTI-SPOOF IN=ppp0 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.131.201 DST=192.168.131.102 LEN=64 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=60971 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1201 DPT=5679 WINDOW=32768 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (020405B4010303000101080A000000000000000001010402) The sync failed. The command route -n bring me the following output: Ziel Router Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.131.201 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.22.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 My configuration of SuSEFW2: FW_DEV_EXT="ppp0" FW_DEV_INT="eth1" FW_ROUTE="yes" FW_MASQUERADE="yes" FW_MASQ_DEV="$FW_DEV_EXT" FW_MASQ_NETS="192.168.0.0/16" FW_PROTECT_FROM_INTERNAL="no" FW_AUTOPROTECT_SERVICES="yes" FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="13 10001" FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="13" FW_SERVICES_INT_TCP="22 80 119 8080 10001 139 5678 5679 990" FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_TCP="yes" FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_UDP="DNS" The other points of the FW-script are default. My questions: 1.) In FW_SERVICES_INT_TCP I added Port 5678, 5679 and 990 because the SynCE-Documation tells me, that the PocketPC need Access to the PC on Port 5678, 5679 and the PC on the PocketPC on Port 990. Is this the right way to configure this? 2.) I don't know the meaning of the message above. Is there a documentation to learn about?
