Ed, For the last time, I am NOT going to adopt a markup language for the Shorewall configuration. Get used to the idea. What I have done for RC 1 is eliminate the need for the columnar format. Here is an example of a blacklist file: ;proto=udp port=1024:1033,1434,5948,23773 ;proto=tcp port=57,1433,1434,2401,2745,3127,3306,3410,4899,5554,5948,6101,8081,9898,23773 ;networks=221.192.199.48 ;networks=61.158.162.9 ;networks=81.21.54.100 proto=tcp port=25 ;networks=84.108.168.139 ;networks=200.55.184.18 ;networks=1.2.3.4 options=dst -Tom Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
