Hi all,
  I''m not able to use shorewall for manage a bridge.
I get the following error:
ERROR: BRIDGING=Yes is not supported by Shorewall 4.4.13.3
Same error with version 4.4.11.4
I have read many documents, but I didnt find any solution.
I have test many configuration (managing hosts,interfaces,zones
files), but I get always the same error.
Have I to compile a new kernel? With which options?
I''m using debian squeeze, kernel 2.6.32-5-686
The bridge is very simple:
ifconfig:
br0       Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:06:7b:09:b9:4d
          inet addr:192.168.5.107  Bcast:192.168.5.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
...
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:18:f3:71:3f:a3
          inet6 addr: fe80::218:f3ff:fe71:3fa3/64 Scope:Link
...
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:06:7b:09:b9:4d
          inet6 addr: fe80::206:7bff:fe09:b94d/64 Scope:Link
..
brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br0             8000.00067b09b94d       no              eth0
                                                        eth1
pan0            8000.000000000000       no
Thanks
Alessandro

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security 
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the 
two and get a better understanding.

Today I check again the shorewall configuration following the instruction, and now It works! I configured the boot too, while yesterday I didn''t (I don''t know if this small modification could make the difference; obviously today I paied attention to all other options too) Thanks Alessandro ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized environment for deploying applications.

I''ve also deleted PKTTYPE and USE_ACTIONS which are also both obsolete. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
