Where did you get your copy of firewall2?
From Suse
The 7.3 distribution had a bug in firewall2 that would cause it to fail.
Maybe I have a later version.
Try this first:
1) Start your ppp0 connection. (dial up)
2) Test that you can't talk to the outside world.
3) Issue: SuSEfirewall2 stop
4) Issue: SuSEfirewall2 start
If you have the bug, it should start working.
I fiddled around with some of the settings there and managed to get it to start, also on boot up. The problem is now that it is blocking the connection and causing Netscape to crash. I was expecting it to load with default settings allow at least a connection. I am not sure what setting I should change. Regards, David
