Re: [Leaf-devel] Bering v1.0-rc3: an update

2002-06-20 Thread jim mcdonagh

Jacques,

Looks like there is some problem with the shorewall 1.3.2 that defaults to the 
/var/lib/shorewall directory.

I added 
/var/lib/shorewall/functions
/var/lib/shorewall/firewall
/var/lib/shorewall/version

and i added the above to shorwall.list

I also

ln -s /var/lib/lrpkg/shorwal.version /var/lib/shorewall/version

regards,
jim mcdonagh

 Hi Folks!
 I just fixed to problems with v1.0-rc3:
 1/ The user's guide should now be OK for download in pdf format.
 2/ I have prepared the 1.3.2 version of shorewall. This version includes
 both errata introduced by Tom for 1.3.1 plus some other features. Bering
 rc3 was released with the first errata only, so you are encouraged to
 upgrade. Check:
 http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/update/
 (Note: this new version of shorewall can be applied to any post rc1 Bering
 release)
 The new features of Shorewall 1.3.2 are described in the news section of
 Tom's web site.

Yes for some reason still unclear to me /var/lib/shorewall directory is not 
backuped by lrcfg. 
The fix is to replace
var/lib/shorewall
by
var/lib/shorewall/
in /var/lib/lrpkg/shorwall.list
Then everything will be backuped OK. I still have to  understand this :-)
Might be related to the new gzip code in bbox 0.60.3. 
In the meanwhile, the shorwall.lrp package in /bering/update has been updated 
with the above mentionned fix

Yes i noticed that.  I had to put in the complete file name.

Could it be because there is is a line in 
root.exclude.list of /var/lib/shorewall?

That's a good point. /var/lib/shorewall has traditionally been used for 
maintaining state information about the running configuration. There's no 
need to back up those files. 

Jacques: You may wish to change the value of STATEDIR in your 
shorewall.conf to something other than /var/lib/shorewall so that when 
folks back up the latter, they won't get the state files.

Let me know if you would like me to change the value in my copy of the LRP 
as well; I'm already maintaining a separate shorewall.conf just for LRP 
anyway.

Yes that is why I put long ago (and I forgot about it :-( ) var/lib/shorewall 
in root.exclude.list. I did not want to change Tom's original package (that 
is why I did not add an shorwall.exclude.list) and there was indeed no reason 
to backup the file in /var/lib/shorewall

 Jacques: You may wish to change the value of STATEDIR in your
 shorewall.conf to something other than /var/lib/shorewall so that when
 folks back up the latter, they won't get the state files.

So here is the clean solution which should solve everything:
1/ remove the var/lib/shorewall line in  /var/lib/lrpkg/root.exclude.list
2/ restore var/lib/shorewall   (now the ending / is no more necessary) in 
/var/lib/lrpkg/shorwall.list
3/ modify shorewall.conf through entry  12 of the shorwall package 
configuration menu and replace
STATEDIR=/var/lib/shorewall
by
STATEDIR=/tmp/shorewall

Tom: is that OK to change that in your LRP package ?
4/ Backup root and shorwall

Jacques
