Description Johannes Meixner 2010-08-03 10:44:12 UTC
Currently the popup texts because of bug #549065 read
in printingvianetwork.ycp:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
  Check that your firewall allows incomming printer information
  on UDP port 631.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
and in sharing.ycp
-------------------------------------------------------------------
  Check that your firewall allows remote access to CUPS via IPP
  on port 631.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Both texts can be misunderstood to open those ports in the firewall
(in particular in the default "EXT" zone of the firewall)
which contreadicts
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_and_SANE_Firewall_settings

Therefore those texts should be enhanced.
