Installing Firestarter In Opensuse 10.2

Ever since Suse 10.0 [my beginning with Suse] I've had problems with NAT problems with Azureus. I've addressed this on the forums to no avail. I eventually switch to Guarddog which works but I think I'd prefer Firestarter. Neither Guarddog or Firestarter is in the repos for 9.2, 9.3, 10.1, or 10.2 that I can find. Could these and Azureus be added to repos for 10.2?

The Firestarter download page has links listed for Suse rpm's for 9.2 and 9.3 but all I get is 'file not found'. Could this be updated? The Guarddog download page is woefully out of date as well but it will install a rpm for Suse 9.1 with no problem and which which works [and which I just installed in 10.2]. I wonder if that could/should be updated?

When I try to install the Firestarter tar ball I get to this step:

./configure --sysconfdir=/etc

I get this error:

Which I'm trying to figure out but haven't yet. Could someone help with this?

Hi
I'm guessing that what you want to do is open ports in the firewall.
If this is true you can do it using yast control panel.
Go to security and users > firewall > allowed services.
Click on the advanced button at the bottom of the window and add the ports you need to open.
Hope this helps.

in guarddog select Advanced tab create a new protocol called Azureus connection and open TCP port 6881 bidirectional.

Firestarter:

Package libgnome-2.0 was not found[/b]

do you have this lib installed?

Port is already open. I followed all instructions for Firewalling in Azureus wiki.

I didn't at the time. I got help here:

http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=28388

and have Firestarter installed but I need an init script for Suse.

In Guarddog I used the Advanced tab to open a port for Azureus [not 6881]. I followed instructions for port choice here:
