What could I check? Check code in /var/lib/shorewall/firewall, search for interface_is_usable. You can also try to enable interface with: /var/lib/shorewall/firewall enable eth0 Do you have /etc/shorewall/isusable script? That's what is used if you have it. If you have that script you should check what's in /var/lib/shorewall/eth0.status file... -- Tuomo Soini <t...@foobar.fi> Foobar Linux services +358 40 5240030 Foobar Oy <https://foobar.fi/> _______________________________________________ Shorewall-users mailing list Shorewall-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-users
