But this isn't what exactly I was waiting for ... okay after my usual tradition of custom compiling tarball kernels I have ended with a 2.6.20 SuSE 10.1 pretty running okay and optimized for the CPU model the box uses, so voila a fast and stable system.
Now assigning the NIC to the external zone (it is, there's no NAT behind that box) and activating firewall all open ports from outside to inside they do work! All ports from inside to outside are kept blocked, so DNS fails for example, until someone tells me what file to edit manually and add the required from inside ports to be opened as well.
The following is an lsmod list, hoping something isn't missing. When I activate firewall additional modules do load, but this won't solve the problem.
Hi, What is the output of: # iptables -t filter --list with your firewall running? SuSE firewall does not normally block any outgoing traffic. Are outgoing connections ok if no firewall is started? -- Blade hails you... I wish for this night-time to last for a lifetime The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea --Nightwish
