OK, it's late, I've gone stupid and could use some help ...

I am in the process of replacing a server with a SuSE 9.2 system that I built
connected to my current ISP.  When I bring it up, I will bring it up on a new 
ISP and,
therefore, a new IP address.  I changed the IP address and moved the server off 
my
handy-dandy KVM (and soon-to-be ex-ISP) and hooked it up to the new ISP using
spare parts.  Unfortunately, my spare monitor is not smart enough to talk to my
server once X starts -- but that's not the real problem (I'll move it back to 
the KVM
shortly).  Now that I've re-IP'd it, I can only contact it while on the same 
subnet it
exists on, not from the "outside".  I assume this is because the firewall needs 
to be
told all the rules now apply to a new IP address, but I can't verify this due 
to lack of
access to the system.

I'm going to borrow a monitor tomorrow and hook it up, but does this sound
reasonable?  If so, can someone enlighten me on how to make the firewall work 
with
the new IP address ... or at least point me in the right direction in The Fine 
Manual?

Many thanks!
Warren
