   Given the age of the os, make very sure it's well protected from outside access   
   and uses only fully trusted sites on the internet.   
      
   You can be guaranteed that ipv6 only sites will not be accessible. Changes in   
   how   
   dns works may also mean using /etc/hosts (or whatever suse uses) inside the   
   guest   
   for all name resolution. Likely only http with no https too, due to   
   incompatible   
   rootcerts, etc.   
      
   I have no experience with suse.
