Mark,
I tried running the script you suggested, as root.  It failed saying I
must have root permissions to complete the script.

Running './rc.firewall check'.  Output will follow ...

-> Projectfiles.com Linux Firewall version 2.0rc9 running.
[: ==: unknown operand
[: ==: unknown operand
[: ==: unknown operand
[: ==: unknown operand
[: ==: unknown operand
[: ==: unknown operand
-> Performing sanity checks. [ FAILED ]
-> FATAL: You must have root privileges to configure the firewall.

Errors were detected in your system configuration.
See the output above for specific details.

A copy of the Linux Firewall initialization script preconfigured by this
program is located in /tmp/rc.firewall


I'm also wondering what effect this script will have on AstShape. 
Will it completely pre-empt any existing settings?
