Beta 2 is now ready for testing. I am particularly interested in having the new Shorewall and Shorewall6 tested with earlier versions of Shorewall Lite and Shorewall6 Lite.
http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/development/4.4/shorewall-4.4.8-Beta2/ ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/development/4.4/shorewall-4.4.8-Beta2/ The main changes in this release are: a) There are now only four all-caps variable names reserved in addition to option names from shorewall.conf and names beginning with SHOREWALL_ or SW_. COMMAND CONFDIR SHAREDIR VARDIR The contents of these variables is described at http://www1.shorewall.net/shorewall_extension_scripts.htm. b) There is a new shell function library, lib.common. That library is used both by generated scripts and by the command line tool. The library is copied into each generated script to avoid dependency issues with saved scripts and with the Lite products. c) The installers for Shorewall and Shorewall6 support an '-s' option which causes only the shorewall.conf (shorewall6.conf) to be installed in the configuration directory. d) A couple of defects are corrected: 1. Previously, when a supported command failed, the Debian Shorewall init script would still return a success (zero) exit status. It now returns a failure status (1) when the command fails. 2. Previously, if a queue number was specified in an NFQUEUE policy (e.g., NFQUEUE(0)), invalid iptables-restore input would be generated. 3. Previously, with optimization 4, users of ipsec on older r releases such as RHEL5 and CentOS, could encounter an error similar to this one: Running /sbin/iptables-restore... iptables-restore v1.3.5: Unknown arg `out' Error occurred at line: 93 Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information. ERROR: iptables-restore Failed. Input is in /var/lib/shorewall/.iptables-restore-input -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
