Beta 1 is now available for testing.
Problems Corrected:
1) This version includes all defect repairs from Shorewall 4.5.2.1 -
4.5.2.3.
2) The LOCKFILE setting in shorewall.conf and shorewall6.conf had
become inadvertently undocumented. It is now documented again.
New Features:
1) The ''-T'' option is now supported in the Shorewall and
Shorewall6
''load'', ''reload'',
''restart'' and ''start'' commands. As with the
''check'' command, it causes a Perl stack trace to be
printed along
with compiler WARNING and ERROR messages.
2) The debuggability of assertion failures has been improved.
- A Perl stack trace is now generated unconditionally on an
assertion failure.
- Relevant data is passed as additional arguments to assertion
checks so that setting a breakpoint in
Shorewall::Config::assert() can now allows examination of the
data structures surrounding the failure.
3) The GATEWAY column of the tunnels file has been renamed
''GATEWAYS''
and now accepts a list of host and network addresses as well as IP
ranges.
Exclusion is not permitted.
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
