hot to open ports to opensuse 11.4
Hi, i am an starter in linux and need to make sure the port 3389 is open for outbound connection, because i want to use remote desktop to connect to one server outside of our network and i think the firewall on opensuse is bloking the port 3389. Can you guys help me step by step on the command line i need to execute on the linux. i will count on you all.

There is no default outbound firewall in OpenSUSE, but just to be sure, please run and paste here the output of the following command, and we can tell you if 3389 is restricted in any way:
/sbin/iptables -nL
/sbin/iptables -nL
Is the server acting as a firewall in your environment? You mean inbound poty?
To open tcp/3389 with iptables:
I would first make sure you can connect within the same network beforehand.
To open tcp/3389 with iptables:
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 3389 -j ACCEPT
I would first make sure you can connect within the same network beforehand.
i can connect with the same network normally, but when it's outside is then blocked. just don't know why.
what's the command i should execute on the linux to make the firewall open for outbound connections. like example:
i can access from outside the network the server normally using remote desktop, and also i can use one computer inside the network to access another computer inside the network using remote desktop, but what i want is to use one computer inside the network to access another computer outside the network. it's like the outbound connection is block but incumming connection is open.

lets say i have network 192.168.0.X and this network is the company network. So using this example.
I can access another computer using remote desktop connection using computer 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.X
I can access computer inside the network 192.168.0.20 using my home computer that is outside the network.
I can't access another server outside the network using computer 192.168.0.20 to access another computer on the internet. This one here does not work.

First, open a command-line terminal. In most systems, you can usually find this in your 'Applications' menu under the 'System Tools' section.
Once you have a terminal open, you have to obtain root access to change firewall settings. Do this by typing:
su -
You will be prompted for your root password.
In the following examples, substitute the port # you want to open for the 12345 in the command.
If you want to open an incoming TCP port, type the following:
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 12345 --syn -j ACCEPT
If you want to open a UDP port (perhaps for DHT in Tixati), type the following:
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 12345 -j ACCEPT
After you are done opening ports in your firewall, you can save your changes so they will be applied when you restart your computer by typing the following command:
service iptables save
