Shorewall 4.6.11 Beta 3 is now available for testing.

Problems Corrected since Beta 2:

1.  If CONFDIR was other than /etc, then ordinary users would not 
    receive a clear error message when they attempted to execute one of
    the commands that change the firewall state.

New Features since Beta 2:

1)  Previously, both lib.cli and lib.cli-std included nearly-identical
    usage() functions. Now, only lib.cli includes the function which
    produces its output based on which product's CLI is invoking it.

2)  To accomodate compiled scripts produced by Shorewall versions
    before 4.4.8, Shorewall products from 4.4.8 onward have run scripts
    twice. The first time is simply to capture the output of the
    'version' command. Based on the scripts version, it is then invoked
    to execute the requested command.

    Beginning in this release, scripts will only be run once if:

    - WORKAROUNDS=No, or
    - the script was compiled as part of executing the command, or
    - AUTOMAKE=Yes and it was determined that re-compilation was not
      required.

Thank you for testing,
-Tom
