In the Firewall Configuration of YaST, the list of services to allow for the External Zone no longer contains "cups". Instead, When setting up the Printer Configuration to accept printer announcements from CUPS servers, YaST pops up a recommendation to open UDP port 631 in the firewall.
There should be no recommendation to open any port in the firewall. But the current popup texts could be misunderstood to do it. Therefore I filed https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=627799
Any sane reason to make this process less convenient?
This is intentionally to avoid that almost all normal users open a security hole because in the usual network environments, the IPP port should never be opened for the EXT zone, see http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_and_SANE_Firewall_settings Additionally you may have a look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=610327 Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany AG Nuernberg, HRB 16746, GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
