This is done by /etc/shorewall/start.
This file is called by shorewall after the firewall is up.

The reason I used this setup was that weblet runs as a non privileged 
user and an iptables command can only be issued at root.
A variant to let a suid script doit should also be possible.
As the firewall doesn't change automatically ( unless you use other than 
the standard scripts) to see the rules this is sufficient. To see the 
statistics it is of course not that good ;)
