    Question Installing Firestarter In openSuse 10.2

    Ever since Suse 10.0 [my beginning with Suse] I've had problems with NAT problems with Azureus. I've addressed this on the forums to no avail. I eventually switch to Guarddog which works but I think I'd prefer Firestarter. Neither Guarddog or Firestarter is in the repos for 9.2, 9.3, 10.1, or 10.2 that I can find. Could these and Azureus be added to repos for 10.2?

    The Firestarter download page has links listed for Suse rpm's for 9.2 and 9.3 but all I get is 'file not found'. Could this be updated? The Guarddog download page is woefully out of date as well but it will install a rpm for Suse 9.1 with no problem and which which works [and which I just installed in 10.2]. I wonder if that could/should be updated?

    When I try to install the Firestarter tar ball I get to this step:

    ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc

    I get this error:

    Which I'm trying to figure out but haven't yet. Could someone help with this?

    I, with help from McQueen, got Firestarter installed. I still need an init script for Suse though. Link is here:
