SuSEFirewall2 is turned on by default on new OpenSuSE installations,however how do I know what are exactly the default settings?Reading the /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 file,and running iptables --list command is not very helpful(specially if you are not netfilter knowledgeable).Does it block everything coming from the outside world,and permits all connections that were initiated from inside,or so?Where do I know more? I run an IDS over my Internet traffic and with OpenSuSE (firewall on -default),it shows substantially less notices than in other system(not OpenSuSE) without firewall. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
