I downloaded shorewall 1.2.1 this morning, and now before I can even try it there''s been another version released AND a bugfix? Now that''s what I call rapid development. Jim Hubbard

Greetings ! The install script seems to miss updating the shorewall.conf file. (was looking forward to BLACKLIST) install.sh: # Install the config file # if [ -f ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf ]; then backup_file /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf else run_install -o root -g root -m 0744 shorewall.conf ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf echo -e "\nConfig file installed as ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf" fi Shouldn''t it be something like: # Install the config file # if [ -f ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf ]; then backup_file /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf run_install -o root -g root -m 0744 shorewall.conf ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf echo -e "\nConfig file installed as ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf" else run_install -o root -g root -m 0744 shorewall.conf ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf echo -e "\nConfig file installed as ${PREFIX}/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf" fi If the conf exists back it up then install new one. I dunno I just copied it in and diff/edit. -- steve

I dunno I just > copied it in and diff/edit.I never overwrite your existing config files during an upgrade. I assume that=20 when new parameters are added that people will edit their files and add=20 parameters if they need to. I try to pick reasonable defaults so that if you=20 do nothing, new features will work in a reasonable fashion. In the case of=20 blacklisting, if you don''t do anything to your shorewall.conf, you get=20 BLACKLIST_DISPOSITION=3DDROP and BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL=3D. I personally find those=20 reasonable (since they''re the settings I use ;-) -Tom --=20 Tom Eastep \ A Firewall for Linux 2.4.* AIM: tmeastep \ http://www.shorewall.net ICQ: #60745924 \ teastep@shorewall.net -------------------------------------------
Tom, I echo this. No need for the paper bag. Thanks again for all the hard work that you put into Shorewall. PS. I really like the blacklist feature that you have added.
