Shorewall users - Aug 2003 - counter reset question

Tom,

I need to remove the counter reset when shorewall is started.
This way i dont loose my byte count for accounting on my 13 IP''s.


Just to be sure, I am going to comment out the ''iptables -Z''
statement
in FIREWALL.

Correct?

Pauly.

You can''t do what you are asking -- there is no way to retain counter
values over a Shorewall Restart.
