Hi,
 I have recently installed shorewall with a very simple rules configuration,

----------------------------------
#SECTION RELATED
SECTION NEW
Ping/ACCEPT     all     $FW
Trcrt/ACCEPT    all     $FW
SSH/ACCEPT      all     $FW
ACCEPT            net     $FW     tcp     http
#LAST LINE -- ADD YOUR ENTRIES BEFORE THIS ONE -- DO NOT REMOVE
-----------------------------------------

  and I have no problems when I initially start shorewall.  Everything
runs fine for 15~20 minutes or longer, but then I suddenly start
getting ssh connections dropped and ping ceases to work.
I'm not convinced that shorewall is actually the issue, but I'd like to know,

  Is there any way a shorewall configuration could start dropping
connections after a lengthy period, or any way that the configuration
setup could go wrong or be reset such a long time following restart?
  If so what can I do to avoid this situation?

  It is a bit frustrating to test as it does not happen immediately.
