Tom,

That was it! Many thanks. What I do not understand is why it was incorrect
when all I had done was the following steps:

Untar shorewall-4.4.17
Run install.sh from the source dir
Untar shorewall6-4.4.17
Run the install.sh from the source dir

Configure the files.

Once again, thanks.

Regards

Antonio

What is your setting of CONFIG_PATH in shorewall6.conf? It should be:

CONFIG_PATH=/etc/shorewall6:/usr/share/shorewall6:/usr/share/shorewall/
