My proposal was to release the config files in /usr/shorewall/share -- to modify one, the user would copy it to /etc/shorewall and modify the copy. So the latest and greatest files (including the comments), would always be in /etc/shorewall/share while the current configuration would be in /etc/shorewall. Any files not in /etc/shorewall would be read from /usr/shorewall/share. Shorewall 2.0 can work that way today; it uses /usr/share/shorewall as the directory of last resort when looking for a configuration file -- it is just that the RC1 .lrp isn't built that way. I can release the .lrp any way that the LEAF folks want it -- and individual LEAF distributions can release their own variations. My only reservation is that it will make Shorewall configuration under LEAF different from Shorewall configuration under any other distribution. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
