Hi all

It looks like I have a firewall problem on the linux guest.  I've
checked with my N/W team, who tell me the SSH port is open on all
firewalls between me and the mainframe.

However, when I try to SSH in, I see the following messages on the VM
guest console: -



sfw2-inext-drop-deflt in eth0 out mac ...  etc



Which seems to suggest that suse firewall is blocking SSH.



I can't logon to disable the firewall, so I think I'm stuck.

Can you log in on the console?

Do that and

service SuSEFirewall2 stop

(I may have the name or capitalization of the firewall service wrong,
but it's something close to that)

Then you should be able to ssh in and fix stuff.
