Cool! (On both counts).

Hmmm -- that's worrisome since I can't reproduce it under those same
circumstances. I'll try again.

Those are correct syntax:

This is expected behavior. The interface in a hosts entry much match the
entry in an Interfaces file exactly (Shorewall 4 will change that and allow
what you are trying to do). So you either must define each VLAN interface in
/etc/shorewall/interfaces or you must use one of the ...+ forms as follows:

/etc/shorewall/interfaces:

-       eth1.+        detect            tcpflags,nosmurfs

/etc/shorewall/hosts:

foo1    eth1.+:192.168.168.0/24         tcpflags

I'm afraid that I know of no one in the Seattle area that does Shorewall
consulting.
