Hi Tom,
First let me apologize most profusely in regards to my poor etiquette!!!
Shorewall version = 4.0.6 (shorewall-shell)
OS = Ubuntu 8.04
I am truly sorry for not abiding to the guidelines
Second thank you so much for suggestion, that was exactly what I needed.
I have now been trying to understand what this module does and why
it is breaking it.  I will keep on searching, but if there is somewhere 
you can suggest to look that would be awesome.

Once again, thank you!!!
Tom
