Yes, it was the firewall! Also, when SLES10 comes up, it says:
Setting up loopback interface lo "" 00155 lo IP address: 127.0.0.1/8 "" 00156 Checking for network time protocol daemon (NTPD): ..unused"" 00157 Can't determine current runlevel"" 00158 ..done"" When I issue the runlevel command from SLES10, it says it is at runlevel 3. Is this the level it should be?
