Thanks all, I found the section for port-forwarding in the SuSEfirewall2
config file.
I'm sorry if the question was off-topic on this list, I'm a newbie with
Linux and exspecially with configuring firewalls. I thought that because
it had to do with firewalling, people on the security list might know
alot about these things.
I do not use my real name with mailing list, because I have my email
software set-up with my nick and most people do not seem to care about it.

Martin Koenig, I receved your message three times, there might be
something wrong with your client
