Hi,
I am using Bering -uClibc now for more than a year (after > 2 year the
earlier versions) and I think it is the best firewall there is
especially as it can run on a memory only system.
I now, however have a small problem with Shorewall. For some reasons I
want to give ssh access to the firewall from another system. So I set 
in the Rules file the appropriate ACCEPT statements. However, Shorewall
refuses to give TCP access to the system.
Here is the result of my Rules file when Shorewall is restarting:

I don't know what the problem is as the route to nic.lth.se (an ntp
server) can well be established.
I am running -uClib version 2.0 - as I have some problems with the newer
versions -  and Shorewall 1.4.5 on a 90 Mhz Winchip system memory only
(no disks).
I also want to know if dropbear looks at both channels (net & loc) or
only at one? 
Can somebody point to my error of thinking with Shorewall?
Thanks in advance
Joep
