Since upgrading my laptop to leap15 there seem to be 2 problems.
- firewalld does not start at boot. I looked at the documentation of firewalld and at yast and nowhere can I find start at boot. I used the commands
linux-tl1r:~ # systemctl enable firewalld.service
linux-tl1r:~ # systemctl start firewalld.service
but I have to do this every time I turn on the computer. WHere can it be set to start at boot?
2) Sometimes (and I don’t know why it is sometimes and at other times it is OK) I don’t get a network connection and I have no IP address. After a while the connection comes up and I don’t know what the problem is. Today I tried
systemctl status network.service

I marked bold the vendor preset: disabled. Can this be the reason? how can it be enabled? The other thing which I saw here is /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon? Any ideas anyone? THanks in advance.

My understanding is that firwalld does not replace the old firewall on an upgrade so the old system is still used check in the network section to read of possible procedures
Thank you for your reply, gogalthorp, but I haven’t changed any firewall settings. When I opened it (YAST) for the first time after the upgrade I received a message that it cannot display it yast without installing a package (forgot what it was) so I installed it. I have firewalld on my Tumbleweed computer so I was not surprised. But how do I get this thing to start at boot?
You may have to remove SuSEfirewall2 but there have been several threads dealing with this in the last few months. I Have not moved to 15 yet so can only note that the switch may require manual introversion if done as an upgrade.,
OK, thanks gogalthorp, I removed SuSEfirewall2 and rebooted and the firewall was up. I checked the previous command which was cut off by the size of the console and now I can read this:
systemctl status network.service

Now there is the strange “device (eth0): state change: ip-config -> ip-check (reason ‘none’, sys-iface-state: ‘managed’)”. Can this be the reason?
