Beta 1 has been uploaded for testing. Note: The version in the release note heading in the tarballs is incorrect (4.5.13).
Problems Corrected:
1) Previously, a list of IPv6 host addresses where each address was
enclosed in square brackets generated a fatal compile-time error.
Such lists are now handled correctly.
New Features:
1) Previously, when compiling for export to a Shorewall lite system,
either /etc/shorewall/params was required to be readable by the
user or the remote host's configuration directory was required to
include a (possibly empty) params file.
Beginning with this release, when a directory name is specified in
a 'compile', 'check', 'load', 'reload' or 'export' command and the
user is not root (euid is not zero), then /sbin/shorewall and
/sbin/shorewall6 will only look in the specified directory for the
params and shorewall[6].conf files.
2) The BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL option has been renamed BLACKLIST_LOG_LEVEL
to be consistent with the other log-level option
names. BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL continues to be accepted as a synonym for
BLACKLIST_LOG_LEVEL, but a 'shorewall update' or 'shorewall6
update' command will replace BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL with
BLACKLIST_LOG_LEVEL in the new .conf file.
3) Rules in the ESTABLISHED section are now placed in separate
chains. Rules for traffic from zone Za to zone Zb and placed in
^Za2Zb or ^Za-Zb, depending on the setting of
ZONE2ZONE. Previously, they were placed in Za2Zb (Za-Zb).
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
