Beta 1 is now availablew for testing.

Problems Corrected:

1)  Previously, the Shorewall and Shorewall6 install.sh scripts did two
    things wrong with respect to the /etc/shorewall[6]/routes file:

    - The existing file was unconditionally removed.
    - A skeleton file was not installed when SPARSE was not set in
      the shorewallrc file.

    Additionally, the installer would remove /etc/shorewall[6]/tcstart.

2)  The Shorewall-init install.sh script previously refused to replace
    /sbin/ifup-local and /sbin/ifdown-local when those files has been
    installed by an earlier version of Shorewall-init.

New Features:

1)  Prior to this release, Shorewall has only supported blackhole null
    routing in the /etc/shorewall[6]/routes file and in the
    NULL_ROUTE_RFC1918 option.

    Beginning with this release, Shorewall also supports 'unreachable'
    and 'prohibit' routes.

    In /etc/shorewall/routes, the GATEWAY column may contain
    'blackhole', 'unreachable' or 'prohibit'.

    NULL_ROUTE_RFC1918 can also assume those values, in addition to
    'Yes' and 'No' (case-insensitive). 'Yes' is equivalent to
    'blackhole' for backward compatibility.

    Please see http://www.shorewall.net/MultiISP.html#null_routing for
    details. That section was provided by Mr Dash Four.

2)  The 'ifupdown' script installed by Shorewall-init is now
    distribution-specific. Previously, the script determined the
    distribution at run-time.

Thank you for testing,
-Tom
