Thanks Alen and Dwight Hubbard and Other experts.
SuSEfirewall2/Iptables is very complicated so I use good recommendation from
experts in this list to use hosts.allow/deny. Thanks again.

Hello Group,



I am new with Suse and new with this group too. My boss just told me I need
to build an FTP server with Suse 10.0. I installed Suse 10 on the new box
fine. I configured to allow only SSH on firewall and it is wide open. My
question is, I want to allow only the ip range to access SSH to this box
only ( 192.9.1.0 - 192.9.1.20 and all 187.4.*.*), How do I do that?
SuSEfirewall2/iptables installed. I wasted my 3 days googled here and
googled there, but could not find any thing. Since I am a brand new newbie
with Linux/Suse, please take it easy with me, ok!



Here what I know so far.

Firewall configuration file: /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2

Start/stop firewall: /sbin/SuSEfirewall2 start/stop

That's it!



Thanks for your help Guys and Girls.
