The firewall is running on a laptop connecting to a local gateway.

The was a problem pinging from the laptop to the gateway when the firewall was
up. I tried several reboots which didn't solve the problem, but seems to began
working now without me noticing, so I think I will accept the situation and not
try to fix what's not broken

Thanks for the help

And when you say "DNS requests from the firewall" you mean for actual
applications running on the firewall box itself?  Not something else
behind the firewall?

$FW all ACCEPT  -
net $FW DROPinfo
all all DROPinfo

I then add specific incoming ports in /etc/shorewall/rules

That helped a bit. It appears that shorewall requires Ipv4 connection tracking
enabled. Now shorewall comes up and seems to work except that dns requests from
the firewall fail when it is enabled. (I can ping out by address but not by
name)
