I suggest you look at the iptables.lrp file using tar, it is a bit long to list here. It holds the iptables executable and the necessary libraries. >How does shorewall use iptables, if at all? It calls it according to the shorewall set up. >If one wanted to include custom iptables rules, say to not NAT any ipsec >traffic, is there a file in which you can put these rules? With Shorewall I believe extension scripts http://www.shorewall.net/1.4/shorewall_extension_scripts.htm could be used for custom iptables set up. Read the caution paragraph though.... Most things you will ever need can be done within the standard shorewall system. Tom might have more aces up his sleeves though. cheers Erich THINK Püntenstrasse 39 8143 Stallikon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Fingerprint: BC9A 25BC 3954 3BC8 C024 8D8A B7D4 FF9D 05B8 0A16 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: thawte's Crypto Challenge Vl Crack the code and win a Sony DCRHC40 MiniDV Digital Handycam Camcorder.
