Shorewall users - Jul 2006 - Shorewall on laptop

Hi

I am trying to configure shorewall on laptop which has following interface:

eth0    - wired
wlan0   - wireless
ppp0    - modem/verizon-evdo dialup


What is the best way to configure shorewall so that shorewall can 
protect all 3 interface.
While I am in office I am on wlan0 or eth0 or both, while at client side 
I am on eth0 and while
traveling I am using modem/verzion-evdo dialup.

Is it possible to configure shorewall in a manner so it can detect which 
interface(s) is up and
accordingly change act on it.

Thanks
YS

The easiest way is this:

/etc/shorewall/interfaces:

net	eth0	detect	<options>
net	ath0	detect	<options>
net	ppp0	-	<options>

Note that some <option>s like ''routefilter'' will
generate a warning during
startup for each interface that isn''t available. That is normal and can
be
safely ignored.

Since you won''t need to route traffic from one ''net''
interface to another, you
can place this in /etc/shorewall/policy:

net	net	NONE
