I''ve uploaded 4.4.19.3 which contains recent fixes:
1) The changes in 4.4.19.1 that corrected long-standing issues with
default route save/restore were incompatible with ''gawk''.
When
''gawk'' was installed (rather than
''mawk''), awk syntax errors having
to do with the symbol ''default'' were issued.
This incompatibility has been corrected.
2) Previously, an entry in the USER/GROUP column in the rules and
tcrules files could cause run-time start/restart failures if the
rule(s) being added did not have the firewall as the source (rules
file) and were not being added to the POSTROUTING chain (:T
designator in the tcrules file). This error is now caught by
the compiler.
3) Shorewall now insures that a route to a default gateway exists in
the main table before it attempts to add a default route through
that gateway in a provider table. This prevents start/restart
failures in the rare event that such a route does not exist.
4) CLASSIFY TC rules can apply to traffic exiting only the interface
associated with the class-id specified in the first column. In a
Multi-ISP configuration, a naive user might create this TC rule:
1:2 - 1.2.3.4
This will work fine when 1.2.3.4 can only be routed out of a single
interface. However, if we assume that eth0 is interface 1, then the
above rule only works for traffic leaving via eth0.
Beginning with this release, the Shorewall compiler will interpret
the above rule as this one:
1.2 - eth0:1.2.3.4
