I dropped my firewall and this helped. HOWEVER I was trying to do a PXE boot and learned that the DHCP server and the tftp server MUST be the same machine for PXE to work, no exceptions. So I use a boot floppy. As for the firewall staying down, I'll have to see. I found that the number of ports I had to open was so many that I didn't have much left to firewall. At least that's how I felt about it. I will have to check the SuSE 9 firewall script to see if there is someway to simply limit the traffic to only the subnet on all ports. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
