View 1 RepliesI'm having problems with my route rule in Firewall, I have two links that are working, and set the firewall to use multiple links at once. What has happened is that when i look the IPs of the clients, (its have for default the route to Link 2), they are changing or losing the rule route for link 2 and have in Explorer the Link 1 in any site for show me ip address, then after some seconds back to normal. And the firewall is not configured to do routing load balancing. What can be? Exist some configuration of kernel to accept this configuration ? Like ip route source or anything ?

three files. That causes a lot of clutter in the log files, and makes it difficult to see whether there are any serious problems being logged.
i have ubu 10.04 64bitit has a lot of problems so i'm thinking of upgrading but i'm afraid of the new version being too strange.anyway. so i installed the new 64 bit flashplayer, version "11,0,1,60"videos and everything else seems to work reasonably well.the classic cnn videos play reasonably well.but now every time i go to the cnn site since yesterday a new page pops up prompting me to try their new video services.i click ok and i instantly get a box telling me i need to have at least flashplayer 10.1 installed, it gives me a button to install flashplayer and that's that.their site and a few others i've seen, do a version check and since my version is newer than the official approved release of 10.x, it fails and won't play.is there anyway to mask the version of my player to fool these checks into thinking i have the version they are demanding?

(1) What is the difference between OpenSuse and Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) ? I see there is a link to download SLES in the Novell site. Will we have to buy SLES after 60 days for us to continue to use that OS ?
(2) I see this link Software.openSUSE.org
There is this link to download 4.7 GB DVD of Opensuse. Does that mean we need not have to download any packages from this repository, ndex of /distribution/11.2/repo/oss/suse/i586
For installing Oracle on Opensuse 9 I remember I had to install many of those packages on my laptop.
Do we still need to install those packages ?
(3) I have to install this SUSE (either Opensuse or SLES) on my laptop. My Laptop is Compaq Presario CQ60.
Can I connect to Internet if I install this software ?
Last time I faced lots of problems. I thought some laptops cannot be configured to Internet if installed with Linux.
I am brand new to sendmail. I have a web application running on APACHE2. I'm told that it uses a PHP mail function to send emails for notifications. I configured my php.ini to use sendmail by adding the following line:
sendmail_path= /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i (I've tried it without the i as well)
As far as the sendmail configuration is concerned, I used the GUI interface provided in the KDE environment (labeled Mail Transfer Agent). I inputted my outgoing mail server's IP address and login information. I also unchecked TLS since my mail server does not use that.
The problem is that no email ever gets sent. The web application states that the email was successfully sent. But I think its because it hands the email to PHP (leaving the responsibility to PHP)...then it believes the email is sent. My mail server uses plain text for authentication. Im not doing anything special with it. I told my mail server to accept connections from my linux box. I also checked my mail server's logs and see that no record of any connection from my linux server is logged.
So it seems my linux server isnt even communicating with my mail server. Both boxes are on the same network. My linux box can ping my mail server just fine. Firewall is disabled. How do I correctly configure sendmail to use an outgoing SMTP server to send emails. And how do I verify that setting works without using the web application I installed? (I want to verify whether or not the issue is with sendmail or the web application). Where do I find sendmail's logs so I can check to see why it's not hitting my mail server?
I've had a go with a netbook and 11.2. Installed ok and X configured KDE desktop with default 1024x600.
Minor. Most apps on running fit between top and panel but then you run their menu item like 'settings' or 'prefs' and its window size is coming up >600 in height. Some allow a scrollbar on the right but for those not, the result is not seeing the 'ok, apply, cancel' buttons. I did find that changing certain font sizes under System Settings both up and down and re-logging in sorted that for most.
If you click the top-left icon on a window you get to the special window settings and can see and change the geometry. However, for some that didn't respond to the font change above and seem to be hardcoded geometry-wise for a 1024x768 minimum, the result is a "squashed" window. Certain button options seen in the normal window are not there or the items are overlayed on each other.
Specific is Okteta the hex editor.Major. I don't use a wheelscroll mouse on other pcs. This netbook has a trackpad with the rightside 7mm or so having a scroll facility. In editor or Firefox running a fingertip on it will scroll the pages which is nice instead of looking and clicking in the scrollbar.
What is NOT nice, I found, is that if the cursor arrow is over a desktop patch and my finger hits that 7mm part of the trackpad when I want to move the arrow, it results in switching between desktops. I wondered what the hell happened when the apps and console I had up disappeared then reappeared then.OK this is the wonderful KDE4 where you can do anything and customise as you like. Well no, not about this. Funnily enough it shows up in the KDE handbook help about being an option in the desktop numbers section but of course isn't there. A fallback entry from previous help version it seems.
I've seen, and have some to make of, the general KDE4 crits but this one's a real WTF. So desk users with a wheelmouse doing some critical reading of some file or webpage could have that rudely interrupted just because their hand moves inadvertently? OK, maybe I should direct at KDE people, but is this fixable in the supplied 11.2 KDE4 or later KDE4.x ?
As you know some(?) new computers have no built-in parallel port. The one I built didn't have one anyway so I bought a PCI-express card with a port, a cheap one with a printer port, nothing more.OpenSUSE 11.1 sees the card somehow and "lspci" says it's aCode:Parallel controller: Oxford Semiconductor Ltd Device c110"hwinfo --printer" does not see it at all, whatever that may mean?I have connected my old inkjet to it and configured the queue same way it used to be on the old computer but nothing ever comes out on the printer. Maybe the fact that I'm running openSUSE 64-bit has something to do with it, wrong drivers or some such?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have installed opensuse 11.4 xen on a HP ML115 G5 AMD Opteron server, which previously hosted a fully working opensuse 11.3 xen. The problem seems to be that br0 is not showing as a bridge device in network settings. When I first installed opensuse 11.4 networking was available via dhcp, I then installed the xen tools and answered the prompt to create a bridge, it was only when I re-booted the system that I lost my network connection.
Going back into network settings I compared the settings to an existing working opensuse 11.3 xen install that I have and noticed that br0 is not showing as a bridge device in network settings so cannot be selected, in fact no bridged devices are shown.
i have configured as root mine wireless connection and the connection works out the box. When i reboot mine pc or i turn off mine pc the configured wireless connection is gone and i must make an new one. This is strange i don't know what is happening but i am several days struggling with this and now i ask this forum what is going wrong i am using Opensuse 11.2 64 bits, Sitecom 300 N Wireless PCI Adapter.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just bought a new system with NVIDIA GeForce 9100 integrated graphics. I used [URL] to install the NVIDIA drivers and utilities. If I use sax2 from the commandline in runlevel 3 (or from KDE) and select LCD 1680x1050 for the display, I am able to test and save the configuration. If I then init 5, KDE starts with the proper display settings. NVIDIA X Server Settings tool shows that I have a Gateway FPD2275W(which is what I have) with display dimensions 1680x1050.
I even have the option to change the refresh rate to 75. I never told the configuration tools what kind of monitor I have, so something detected it. The problem comes when I reboot. The display reverts to 1280x1024 which is not correctly proportioned for my display. The NVIDIA tool then shows some kind of generic monitor, and does not give me any options to configure the display correctly. My system has an AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 820 Processor.
Trying to move from Windows to OpenSUSE. I have installed OpenSUSE 11.2, and am having a hard time trying to connect to the internet using my nokia E65. I have tried to configure the modem thru YaST and it keeps showing that my nokia E65 modem is not configured, but adds another modem every time I configure using the edit button i.e. modem0, modem1 etc.
When i finish the configuration I get pop ups on the bottom right conner:
Notification from network management
WLAN interface attached
Network interface attached
But nothing happens afterwards. When I connect the phone it shows that it is recognized as a modem (probably). but when I click on the icon so it connects to my service provider "econet" it just says activating with a red x in the conner, and still nothing happens!
The following are the screenshots (still not sure how to attach files on this forum), may someone assist, with that too.
I really want to move from Windows but this is what's stopping me. the sooner I connect to the Internet through my phone, the sooner I leave Windows, since it's the only way I can connect to the internet.
I have tried wvdial, and I got the following:
Installed 11.3 as new install on Thinkpad T42. I now have a persistent notification "Nepomuk was not able to find the configured database backend 'redland' ... what it means. System seems to be working but desktop icons have grey vertical rectangular box when selected. No objects to select in the boxes though. Previous version had tools available as I recall.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am learning to setup firewall in my home for that i have selected four system(sys1,sys2....sys4) for testing .I have configured sys2 to act as a firewall with two NIC. sys3 and sys4 are inside the firewall . sys1 is not connected to firewall for testing purpose.
the IP assignments are follows :
sys1 : ( fedora, not connected to firewall i am thinking, But i am not sure )
IP : 192.168.2.1 ,
gateway : blank
dns1 : blank
dns2 : blank
sys2 firewall ,IPTABLES )
code....
what happened is that sys1(not connected to firewall) can ssh to sys4(connected,inside firewall),since the rules are written not to ssh form sys1 to sys4..
then I came to know whatever the request I give, It directly goes as sys1 --> sys4. Not as sys1-----> sys2(firewall)---> sys4 .and the firewall is not filtering and processing anything for both inbound and outbound (i think it's my mistake some where). the requests are directly going inside without firewall.
I'm trying to build firewall on Debian with 'Firewall Builder'. But it won't let me compile and run unless one interface is set as management. There are two interfaces on my computer: 'eth0' and 'lo'
I don't want to be able to configure firewall remotely, so could I use 'lo' as 'management interface'?
I have a home network which is protected by a dedicated firewall pc running pfSense. I have an opensuse 11.2 webserver on the home side of the firewall. Is it necessary to run the a firewall or setup iptables on the opensuse box?At some point I intend to port forward through the firewall to the web server so it can be accessed via the internet. Access to the web server will be password protected as its only for myself and my business associates to connect to.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been through the threads here and there and think I have everything set up for the two computers to share files.This a vista64 box to a openSuse 11.2. 11.2 has been updated with the newer samba files.The Vista box has the shares set up. I seem to can't get Samba to see it no matter which settings I give it. It says there is a possible firewall between Opensuse and vista.
Ubuntu 9.10 would see the share with just scanning the stuff but it was extremely slow.I keep looking for insight in the forums for what I am seeing or missing to get around this.I would like to see the speed of the network when I share files, the sneaker net is getting old with the usb drives.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been setting up NIS for the first time. When I have the firewall on, the NIS client can't find the NIS server. When the firewall is off, it can. These are both on the same computer (the server).I have both the NIS client and server opened in the firewall -- all the setup has been done through yast so far.
Is there something else that needs to be done that I missing? Or if not, perhaps it just a minor setup bug in the scripts in which case could someone tell me what ports I would additionally need to open manually in the firewall to make it work that wouldn't already be opened?
On a different note, in a recent discussion on another thread someone told me that openSUSE was going to be unsupported from around May this year -- has anyone heard of this or should I just ignore it? I thought with 40k users registered on the website Novell would find something better to do with all of us rather that just drop us so I am a little skeptical.
I am trying to add a custom allow rule in the firewall for a range of IPs from 74.201.102.0 - 74.201.103.255, what exactly am I supposed to enter in the source box? I believe I have to add two separate rules for 102 and 103, and I put /24 at the end of both, is this correct to get the whole range of IPs?
View 3 Replies View Related1. Under openSUSE 11.2, I allowed printer sharing through CUPS by setting the Firewall to Allow Services of CUPS in the External Zone section. I don't see the CUPS option in the Allow Services of the Firewall under 11.4, any zone. Is my system missing something?2. If I turn off the Firewall, the client computer can see the printers, even get the broadcasted names. If I put port 631 in TCP of the Advanced setting of the External Zone, the client computer can see the printer too, but I know I read somewhere that putting 631 in the External Zone is basically allowing printer requests from the entire internet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently bought a D-Link DIR-655 router capable of 802.11n operation, upgrading from a DIR-624 router only capable of 802.11g operation. While my overall setup uses wired connections, other people in the house prefer wireless, and the upgrade was undertaken more for a hoped for increase in wireless range, rather than the possibility of increased speed, since the router is located to accommodate the wired connections. However, to test the 802.11n operation I bought a D-Link DWA-130 USB dongle for my now 5-year old laptop, which comes with an otherwise satisfactory 100Mbs ethernet port(eth1) and an 802.11g wireless card(eth0). By checking the dmesg | grep firmware output after I plugged in the dongle I determined that the necessary firmware was rtl8192sfw.bin, which I found on the web, and downloaded into the directory /lib/RTL8192SU.
A subsequent reboot and then YaST > Network Devices > Network Settings showed the device as wlan0, but not configured. I changed the Network Setup Method to ifup (since I can see no way to do a device configuration in Network Manager), and configured the device, and at the same time deleted the configuration for the existing 802.11g wireless card(eth0). I then rebooted, went back into YaST to confirm the wlan0 device was configured and the 802.11g device (eth0) was not, changed the Network Setup Method back to Network Manager, rebooted again. Making sure that the router was set to only transmit/receive using 802.11n I then typed iwlist scan. To my surprise, the output showed first that the supposedly unconfigured eth0 device seemed to be still active, for it found my home network, and claimed that the protocol used was 802.11g. On the other hand, the newly configured wlan0 device produced the message: "Interface doesn't support scanning: Network is down".
First, should I expect iwlist scan to work for a device that shows as unconfigured? And even if it should work, shouldn't it show 802.11n as the protocol, assuming that the router is in fact telling the truth? Is there any independent means to determine if the router is only using 802.11n as it claims? Second, the overall goal is to make the wireless network in the house 802,11n only, and since the dongle is backward compatible with 802.11g, I would expect to permanently unconfigure the eth0 device and use the dongle, both here and on the road.

Just returned to Suse after a long hiatus with Mandriva, strangely the WG311 v3 did not configure during installUnable to configure the network card because the kernel device (eth0, wlan0) is not present. This is mostly caused by missing firmware (for wlan devices). See dmesg output for details.Unfortunately the output of dmesg does not mention the card.Output of lspci follows,

how to open firewall ports without using yast. The reason I'm asking is because I'm working on a .sh script for the installation of a couple of programs. Some ports need to be open for the programs to work, I find it really annoying to go to yast and type the ports manually every time. I've looked at /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 but can't seem to find anything, I also know that after the changes I will have to stop start the firewall by running:
SuSEfirewall2 stop
SuSEfirewall2 start
what I need to do to the firewall in order to make a shared printer available to other machines on my network?
I have the printer set up and have tested it with the firewall switched off, but as soon as I restart the firewall, the printer is inaccessible.
I thought that all traffic on the internal network was allowed, but it seems that I need to create an explicit rule in order to get the shared printer working. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to do that yet.
switched recently to 11.2 and it works fine for me as workstation I want to set up a router separating a part of the network and also acting as a firewall/proxy... Configured 2 Ethernet Interfaces, checked Ip forwarding in Yast but it does not forward the packets from the "internal" to the "external" network. Hovewer after I set up my router as default for machines on internal network I can ping the external interface but no adress on external network (particularly the one of the default router) !!! From the router I can reach both networks and the net via default gateway on external. Tried to:
a) switch firewall completely off
b) iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
c) masquarading internal adresses to the external network
my interfaces configuration looks like:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:D4:E3:A2:7B
