Wow, I don't what STFU means, but I'm afraid to guess. Why are you so aggressive, all at once? I don't think I was trying to belittle your answer. I was only explaining I hope I protected my little network enough. Broadcasting was very useful for me when my server was running OpenSUSE 10.1 (ans 10.0, IIRC), so I was naturally trying to reproduce that setting. You think it's a mistake because of the risk of external connections, but that risk doesn't exist here. If there are other dangers, I'm willing to listen. > Don't come looking for answers and > jump down the throat of someone trying to help. If you got the impression that I "jumped down your throast", I apologise. I certainly didn't intend to do that. Remember, I was asking for documentation on the "Remot access settings" option in YaST2, to understand what it did and didn't do, relating to broadcast among other things. > I have never encountered the need to turn on broadcasting in > cups. It solves nothing. It's a convenience when there is no risk of external connections, that's all. Sorry for having tried to explain my point of view, and sorry if I sounded harsch.
