Hello, I''ve been using Shorewall for quite some time now, and love the product. Thanks Tom. I just have a question about something I noticed--I have about 50 addresses in my blacklist file, but when I do an ''iptables --list'' I don''t see any obvious rules referring to any of those ipaddresses. Is this how it should be? If so, how exactly does the blacklist work? I apologize is this is a stupid question, it was just something I noticed and was interested in. David Burrow
Okay, Sorry, after rereading the documentation and checking my config files, I found that the blacklist option wasn''t set in my interfaces file for the appropriate interface. I just set it, miraculously (bangs fist against head) the rules show up in iptables. Silly me. Sorry for cluttering the list.
