Shorewall 5.0.8 RC 1 is now available for testing.

Problems Corrected since Beta 4:

1)  A number of issues have been resolved with saving/restoring ipsets
    in Shorewall and Shorewall6.

    - Even if Shorewall's SAVE_IPSETS was set to ipv4, restarting one
      configuration would attempt to flush/destroy the ipsets for the
      other address family.

    - The same set could be saved multiple times, with the result
      that ipset error messages were issued during 'shorewall[6]
      start'.

    - Needless repetition of code was generated due to the use of
      compile-time loops rather than run-time loops.

2)  Previously, when AUTOMAKE=Yes, the 'start' command would not
    regenerate an out-of-date firewall script.

3)  A couple of recent changes have resulted in file name collisions
    on Cygwin with its underlying case-insensitive filesystem. To avoid
    these collisions.

    - /usr/share/shorewall/deprecated and
      /usr/share/shorewall6/deprecated directories have been created.

    - When a name collision occurs, the file with the older name is
      moved to the deprecated directory

    - The compiler automatically searches the deprecated directory
      (both directories in the case of Shorewall6) for files.

    In this release, macro.SNMPTraps and action.A_Reject were moved to
    /usr/share/shorewall/deprecated/. Note that both are deprecated -
    Reject accepts an 'audit' parameter, and macro.SNMPTraps has been
    superseded by macro.SNMPtraps.

Thank you for testing,

-Tom
