A Debian Squeeze system with Shorewall and Shorewall-Init, both 4.4.19.1-1, is running here. No failures have been observed in the small network, described in http://carnot.yi.org/NetworksPage.html. The PPP connections through serial cross-over cable and through modems work with both values for IFUPDOWN in /etc/default/shorewall-init. I''ve made no tests beyond ordinary use. Anyone interested in a specific test or output is welcome to email. My only complaint is a trivial one. The notes in /usr/share/doc/shorewall/README.Debian are helpful. The analogue /usr/share/doc/shorewall-init/README.Debian is non-existent. With current technology, Web based documentation is preferable to local documentation for most requirements but I accept that *nix systems have a deeply established tradition. So a README.Debian might be helpful. Thanks for the very professional work, ...

Odd that the first paragraph of my message was removed. In case it wasn''t removed deliberately, here it is again. A Debian Squeeze system with Shorewall and Shorewall-Init, both 4.4.19.1-1, is running here. No failures have been observed in the small network, described in http://carnot.yi.org/NetworksPage.html . The PPP connections through serial cross-over cable and through modems work with both values for IFUPDOWN in /etc/default/shorewall-init. I''ve made no tests beyond ordinary use. Anyone interested in a specific test or output is welcome to email. My only complaint is a trivial one. The notes in /usr/share/doc/shorewall/README.Debian are very helpful to a novice. The analogue /usr/share/doc/shorewall-init/README.Debian is non-existent. With current technology, Web based documentation is preferable to local documentation for most requirements but I accept that *nix systems have a deeply established tradition. So a README.Debian for Shorewall-Init might be helpful. Thanks for the very professional work, ...
