Shouldn't it be HTTP/ACCEPT? If I do ACCEPT/HTTP, Shorewall crashes.

Have a great day,

That would be a bad idea.  Assuming your two webservers on the LAN have
public IP addresses, I would do this:

ACCEPT/HTTP wan lan:1.2.3.4,1.2.3.5

That will allow port 80 traffic entering from the WAN to only go to the two
webserver hosts.  If you accept traffic to 'any' that allows port 80 traffic
to enter and go to any host on your network (if you have an UPS or a router
running a web interface for administration, that could be a bad thing).
