Dear List, In the Documentation for Shorewall 3.X is the hint, that I''ve to restart shorewall (by calling /sbin/shorewall restart), after my DSL Provider terminates the connection (normally every 24 hours) because the reconnection deletes all filters / qdiscs related to the dialup interface (ppp0). Now my quwestion: Would a script calling /sbin/shorewall refresh work too ??? I''ve read the man page of shorewall and how I understand the man, the refresh regenerates all tcrules etc. Best Reguards Alexander Loob ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

If you have done a previous ''shorewall save'', then ''shorewall restore'' will also work. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key
