I understand this error is due to size limit of a zone name which by default is set to 5, correct? But I don't understand from the doc's how to change the limit to a higher number. My largest zone name is 12 characters...
In 'man shorewall-zones' I read: ZONE - zone[:parent-zone[,parent-zone]...] Name of the zone. The names "all", "none", "SOURCE" and "DEST" are reserved and may not be used as zone names. The maximum length of a zone name is determined by the setting of the LOGFORMAT option in shorewall.conf(5). With the default LOGFORMAT, zone names can be at most 5 characters long. And in 'man shorewall.conf' I read: LOGFORMAT=["formattemplate"] The value of this variable generate the --log-prefix setting for Shorewall logging rules. It contains a "printf" formatting template which accepts three arguments (the chain name, logging rule number (optional) and the disposition). To use LOGFORMAT with fireparse, set it as: LOGFORMAT="fp=%s:%d a=%s "If the LOGFORMAT value contains the substring "%d" then the logging rule number is calculated and formatted in that position; if that substring is not included then the rule number is not included. If not supplied or supplied as empty (LOGFORMAT="") then "Shorewall:%s:%s:" is assumed. But after reading this I still have no clue on how o change the current setting (LOGFORMAT="Shorewall:%s:%s:") to allow a 12 character zone name...
