Description Christian Boltz 2005-11-06 20:32:06 UTC 
I installed (fresh installation, no update) a machine using VNC with the following boot parameters:
    vnc=1 vncpassword=secret usessh=1 sshpassword=secret
    install=nfs://10.12.80.30/media/cdrom

It worked until the release notes should be displayed - VNC was simply blocked. I realized that I had setup the firewall as active (default!) some seconds before.

When calling   rcSuSEfirewall stop   VNC was working again and I could finish the installation.

Conclusion: The firewall should start _after_ the VNC installation is complete ;-)

... or it should start with VNC port enabled.

Feature has been already added into 10.1
