Thanks for reporting this, I could verify this on the Live-CD. It may be a 
side effect of the build, but in any case, it should not.

Na, that is not permitted on *x systems: Search for (e.g.)
  root  xhost +localhost
on google to get some basis

Wait until I fixed that, or follow the instructions in   
https://en.opensuse.org/SuSEfirewall2

The line you are looking for is e.g.

FW_SERVICES_ACCEPT_EXT="192.168.2.1/24,tcp"

in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 

Dont forget to restart the FW
