SuseFirewall2 bugs in OpenSuse 11.1?

English Network/Internet
#1

I have trying to configure the firewall under opensuse 11.1.

Since I saw that when saving the configuration and loading it again, the services I have selected are all gone. Sorry, if I complain here, but I think this is a bug. I never got working right this software and I put the port manually. That always works.

Before I used IP-Tables.

What do you think. I saw that behaviour on three different machines. Is this normal?

#2

Not normal.
Might you be doing it incorrectly?

Look at this about bittorrent. Just as an Eg; It has manual additions to the firewall:

Q1: Which services did you select?
Q2: Did you put the network interfaces in the External Zone?

#4

Works for me™.

I even use my own, (simple) self-written service files instead of ports.

grep Filetransfer /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2
FW_CONFIGURATIONS_EXT="Bittorrent Filetransfer VM-SSH"

and

cat /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2.d/services/Filetransfer
