I'm following a firewall set up that is customized to redhat as always. I need to load my rule set just after my network is up. The install suggest the equivalent of boot.local where in inputted a line after rc.config. What seems to be happening is it is not waiting on rc.config to load before it executes. I'm not familiar with SuSE8.0 config any help would be appreciated..
boot.local is run before the network is up. You probably have to create a script in /etc/init.d. Take a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton for an example. Note the lines between "### BEGIN INIT INFO" and "### END INIT INFO". The "Required-Start" is used to calculate the order of the init scripts. See "man insserv" for more info. E.g. YaST's Runlevel Editor uses insserv. Probably your Required-Start has to include "network route dhclient" (guessed from /etc/init.d/SuSEfirewall2_setup). Leen
