I am making a new box to test with and was trying to install shorewall via rpm. So I download the shorewall 2.2.5 rpm and issue a rpm -ivh shorewall-2.2.5-1.noarch.rpm. I then get an error: error: Failed dependencies: which is needed by shorewall-2.2.5-1.noarch So as you can see there are no dependency issues. I thought I saw this on the mailing list a while ago but I just searched for it I did not find anything. Can anybody tell me what is going on? I guess I could try to use a --no-deps option. Vitals: Fedora Core 3 (minimal install) Kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 iptables v1.2.11 Thanks, -- _ /-\ ndrew andrew@pure-wireless.net http://www.pure-wireless.net

There have been dependency problems in the past on some other systems, but shorewall is so simple to install that Tarballs always have worked just as easily. -- John Andersen - NORCOM http://www.norcomsoftware.com/
