That works Ok unless the poster's problem is that he/she can't get his/her
web/ftp server to work through Shorewall!

The bottom line is that Shorewall support requires that people reporting
problems need to be able to send 128-column text files in a way such that
the file's contents don't resemble pretzels when they get to me...

I tried supporting Shorewall through a Web Forum for a while -- I gave up 
after a month or so because of "copy and past" iptables output that was 
folded and/or displayed in a proportional font...
