Beta 3 is now available for testing.

New Features:

1)  The generated script now detects and removes stale lock files.

2)  Steven Underwood has contributed Fedora/Redhat init script and
    .service files. The .service files are used with systemd which
    manages the startup sequence in Fedora 16.

    When installing using the install scripts:

    a) If /lib/systemd/system exists, the .service files are installed
       there and are activated using /sbin/systemctl. When installing
       into a directory, setting the SYSTEMD environmental variable to
       a non-empty value will also trigger this behavior.

    b) If /etc/redhat-release exists, the Fedora/Redhat init script
       will be installed in /etc/init.d. When installing into a
       directory, setting the FEDORA environmental variable to a
       non-empty value will also trigger this behavior.

3)  Previously, when a provider interface went 'soft down' (UP and
    configured but not usable) or came back up from being 'soft down',
    the firewall had to be reloaded ('/var/lib/shorewall/firewall
    restart') to disable or enable the interface.

    Beginning with this release, the compiled IPv4 script supports two
    new commands:

    -   disable <interface>
    -   enable <interface>

    The 'disable' command removes all policy routing added as a result
    of the interface's entry in /etc/shorewall/providers. The 'enable'
    command restores that policy routing.

Thank you for testing,

-Tom
