Thanks Carl The situation is one which is worth pulling your hair out over, I can ping and I have tried what you said, the PC is available on the internal network and we are able to connect to it. The proble is how to get the blasted firewall to allow it, If I down the Susefirewall and just run a rules script with default policy accept it works, but SuseFirewall has default policy of drop and I want it that way, I just don't have enough experience or knowledge for this kind of setup,
That actually why I asked here, LOL :)
Surely somewhere someone has had to do this with Susefirewall2 ?
Come on friend assist a fellow Suse user here...
You're asking a severe dyslexic with one good eye to help you debug SUSEFirewall2? ;-) There are an awful lot of technically brilliant people on this list who know how to do what you want... IMHO, the problem is you haven't provided enough detail concerning the setups at each end of these connections. As I understand it, you're trying to accomplish the following: Scenario A ====== PC1 is a client on lan1 PC2 is also a client on lan1 You want to attach to the desktop on PC2 from PC1 Scenario B ====== PC3 is a client on lan2 lan2 is remote from lan1 and must be accessed through the Internet You want to attach to the desktop on PC3 from PC1 Is this correct? - Carl
