Shorewall users - Feb 2003 - A note of thanks

Tom,

Just a quick note of thanks that I''ve been putting off for a week now. 
I''ve
installed 3 firewalls in my life, the other two took at least a day to get
up and running. Shorewall ran the first time I fired it up. The config files
are a bit overwhelming in their samples and examples but that''s
refreshing
compared to the other 2 I installed. The documentation is as complete as any
program I''ve used commercial or open source They are so complete and
well
organized that it becomes obvious when people asking questions on the list
without having read them. (or in my case, re-read them!)

Most impressive though is the lengths that you Tom, go to in attempting to
help people. Even people who haven''t bother to read your ''Read
This Before
Posting'' page.

Thank you Tom (and if there are other contributors that I am overlooking,
thank you too) for this product.  I know you''ve made my life easier.

=C
