Problems corrected in this RC:
1. When optimization 4 was enabled (OPTIMIZE = 4, 5, 6 or 7), then
iptables-restore failed under the following circumstances.:
a) There is a zone defined in /etc/shorewall/hosts with a network
address other than 0.0.0.0/0.
b) There is a DNAT or REDIRECT rule that specifies an IP address
(host or network) in the SOURCE column.
2. Under the following conditions, a Perl run-time diagnostic is
issued:
- Optimization 2 is enabled
- An interface is associated with a single zone Z
- The interface is described with an option such as ''dhcp''
that
requires netfilter rules
- The Z->fw or fw->Z policy is ACCEPT
In addition to causing the diagnostic, this set of circumstances
causes the rules implementing the option(s) to be omitted from the
generated ruleset.
3. Previously, the ''nosmurfs'' option was ignored in IPv6
compilations. As part of this fix, ''nosmurfs'' handling
when
SMURF_LOG_LEVEL is specified has been improved for both IPv4 and
IPv6 and the ''smurfs'' chain is no longer created and
populated when
there are no ''nosmurfs'' interfaces or networks.
