Yes, Shorewall has been working here for more than five years.  Recently two 
factors have introduced a little difficulty.
(1) Switching the 'net connection from always-on cable to WiFi 
  connected to a mobile access point.
(2) Failure of a HDD necessitating reinstallation of the OS.

Thanks for the reminder.  Will review files there.

Thanks.  The pages at shorewall.org suffice, more or less.  I tripped on 
the intended use of the params file, NET_IF and the "physical=" option.
The replies from Justin and Matt helped to clear the fog.

Regards,                             ... P.
