If you need includes firewalling, you will have to use bwmtools to generate your firewall OR another application, 2 firewall generation applications wouldn't work too nicely together/ > In the moment i create with the fwbuilder (www.fwbuilder.org > <http://www.fwbuilder.org>) my own firewall. > Think it is not the problem and a very better firewall. > And it is Suse Supported, so i can better integrated in the distro as > the bwm_firewall.
