suse 12.3 kde fresh install with separated /home, if I go to >yast2>firewall and I check the button to disable firewall automatic starting it seams to work, but when I reboot the firewall is still there and if I go to >yast2>firewall the check is on the enable firewall automatic starting.
how can I disable the firewall???
thnx 
ciao pier
Try these in a terminal
systemctl status SuSEfirewall2.service
systemctl enable SuSEfirewall2.service
systemctl start SuSEfirewall2.service
systemctl stop SuSEfirewall2.service
systemctl disable SuSEfirewall2.service
maaaany thanks, they worked perfectly:), could it be a bug in yast??
thnx ciao pier
Nope, this is because we’re used to the old runlevels, while systemd is taking over. You may be interested in systemd-ui, which you can start with
kdesu systemadm
Try enabling, starting, stopping from there. It also gives a nice overview on what services rely on.
This is interesting, I can not get my firewall to start either.
I follower the instructions above and got no error messages so I assumed the firewall was started. I now check yast and it says the firewall is running but then I check systemd-ui and get this.

It looks like the firewall is not running. I wonder what it is really doing? Which one of these service managers should I trust?

Well, THAT is a bug in YaST, which is not able to handle start/stop of
services any longer, because of the systemd migration.

Yes, I’m surprised that YaST wasn’t updated to handle this for openSUSE 12.3, although I guess it’s still trying to provide compatibility with sysvinit while it is still supported.

YaST doesn’t seem to be a priority anymore. Perhaps when the new SLES
get released. :-}

Is there a bug filed for this?

That YaST lacks maintenance and is bitrotting? That’s a known issue. I
read a developer complaining of this recently…
This particular issue of stopping the firewall? Dunno, I haven’t looked,
but it is not the first time that I see posts on this.
It would certainly be a good idea to report it again, let them close it
as duplicated if they like.
