A few questions so I'm not leading you in the wrong direction:

Is shorewall running on a dedicated firewall box, or is it running on a
host?

If it is on a dedicated box, is eth0 on the internet side, or the local
side?

Does your datecenter give you a public or private ip?  (I know a dumb
question, but maybe they are doing 1-1 nat or something)

Thank you,
