Hi list, I have a shorewall installed on 2 interfaces which also has multiple static public IP. Let''s say I have 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.3.5. I have assigned nat with: 1.2.3.4 eth0 11.22.33.4 no no But then I have a situation where I need 11.22.33.44 to connect to a host in the net zone and appears also to be 1.2.3.5 not only 1.2.3.4. How to do it? TIA Willy

Hi all, I have a client that has 4 subnets within his building, internet, office, business center and wireless. My plan is to use Shorewall but I have never tested it with more than 2 interfaces. Is this possible? Would there be any issues that might arise. Each subnet would have access to the internet but there will be no communications allowed between the others. Thanks in advance....
