Installing it on a virtual machine might be your only option if you absolutely want to run it on your SuSE box. It does not really matter what filesystem you use for LEAF, as long as the kernel supports it, but you will have to dig into it. LEAF is _not_ designed to run under a specific OS, but to run on its own. You can use iptables on your SuSE if you want to just use its firewall functions. If you want to use shorewall to set up the rules look at shorewall.net cheers Erich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
