Shorewall 5.0.2 Beta 2 is now available for testing.
Problems Corrected Since Beta 1:
1) This release includes defect repair up through Shoreall 5.0.1.1.
2) A number of issues with param file processing on Cygwin have been
corrected. The most serious of these issues was introduction of
syntax errors into the generated firewall script.
4) More version numbers have been removed from configuration files
and Macros (Tuomo Soini).
5) The check for use of a circular kernel log buffer (as opposed to a
log file) has been improved.
6) Previously, HOST=default was accepted by configure[.pl], but the
generated shorewallrc file was unusable. Now, HOST=default produces
a usable shorewallrc.
7) Previously, if a circular log buffer was being used, the output of
various commands still displayed '/var/log/messages' as the log
file. Now, it is displayed as 'logread'.
8) The 'remote-*' commands now return correct exit status.
New Features since Beta 1:
1) It is now possible to replace any function in the CLI libraries
except for get_config(). This is accomplished by placing the
replacement function(s) in a shell library named 'lib.cli-user' in
a directory on the CONFIG_PATH. This allows for customization of
commands as well as working around distribution-specific issues.
2) Support for OpenWRT versions BB and later has been added. As part
of this support, the log display commands in the -lite products no
longer depend on the 'tac' utility (although it will be used if it
is installed).
Thank out for testing,
-Tom
