Shorewall can be configured to start successfully before any interfaces are brought up but you must avoid using Shorewall features that require Shorewall to probe the current IP configuration. Two common examples are: a) Do not use 'detect' in the BROADCAST column of /etc/shorewall/interfaces. b) Do not use a device name in the SUBNET column of /etc/shorewall/masq. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key
