Subject: [suse-sles-e] SuSEFirewall Configuration with VPN tunnels

Hey folks,

I have a SLES-9 server which is running vpn software that creates a tunnel
utilizing tun0 network devices. I access the tunnels from a number of other
machines on a local network via default routes to this SLES-9 server.

I would like to setup the SuSEFirewall on this particular machine. I have not
been able to figure out the combination of configuration values which will
allow the SLES-9 to still allow routing from the local network to the tun0
device.

Any suggestions as to which items to look at?

Next question (and the reason I want the firewall up in the first place). I
want to only allow a certain set of ip's on my local network to access the
tun0 device on the SLES-9 server. I want to limit the ip's of devices which
can route through this box.

Thanks,

Ron
