Problems Corrected since version 1.4.6:
1) Corrected problem in 1.4.6 where the MANGLE_ENABLED variable was
being tested before it was set.
2) Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column of the
tcrules file. Previously, these addresses resulted in an invalid
iptables command.
Migration Issues:
1) Once you have installed this version of Shorewall, you must
restart Shorewall before you may use the ''drop'',
''reject'', ''allow''
or ''save'' commands.
2) To maintain strict compatibility with previous versions, current
uses of "shorewall drop" and "shorewall reject" should be
replaced
with "shorewall dropall" and "shorewall rejectall".
New Features:
1) Shorewall now creates a dynamic blacklisting chain for each interface
defined in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. The ''drop'' and
''reject''
commands use the routing table to determine which of these chains is
to be used for blacklisting the specified IP address(es).
Two new commands (''dropall'' and
''rejectall'') have been introduced
that do what ''drop'' and ''reject'' used to
do; namely, when an address
is blacklisted using these new commands, it will be blacklisted on
all of your firewall''s interfaces.
2) Thanks to Steve Herber, the help command can now give
command-specific help.
