Root control to Major Tom... OOps, sorry, getting distracted. I have a somwhat odd situation with the SuSE resident firewall (and/or perhaps the Yast tool that configures it). I run a few servers on my system, including DHCP, DNS, Samba. I configured the firewall to allow access to these, and for a while all was well. Recently, however, DHCP "just stopped." I traced the problem to the firewall blocking the DHCP port. I've tried restarting the firewall, and a number of other ways to kick it from Yast, but the only way my DHCP works right now is if I turn the firewall off. Any suggestions? Should I resort to manual (file-based) configuration, and if so, where do I start finding out how to do that? TIA Cheers, Simon "You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.
