Hello, http://shorewall.net/ports.htm#id2807602 says the following : Check your /etc/shorewall/actions.std file for a list of the actions in your distribution. But this file is not there on my system but instead it is in /usr/share/shorewall It would be handy to find it in /etc/shorewall so you have all togerher. Is this a bug in installation of the RPM? -- Groeten, Peter Hou je bek, dat is beter voor het milieu. - - Heb je een Dreambox 7000S ? - Kijk eens op http://www.dreamvcr.com - Kijk ook op http://www.lindeman.org - ICQ 22383596 - Uptime lindeman.org - 0 days, 3 hours and 34 minutes, 2 users logged in.

Is there a specific reason to have it in /usr/share/shorewall? -- Groeten, Peter Press any key... no, no, no, NOT THAT ONE! - - Heb je een Dreambox 7000S ? - Kijk eens op http://www.dreamvcr.com - Kijk ook op http://www.lindeman.org - ICQ 22383596 - Uptime lindeman.org - 0 days, 3 hours and 45 minutes, 2 users logged in.
