I am currently using Fedora 16 with the distribution provided shorewall-*-4.4.23.3-6.fc16 packages. shorewall-init seems to be missing a critical file. /lib/systemd/system/shorewall-init.service attempts to call /sbin/shorewall-init, but, /sbin/shorewall-init does not exist. I thought maybe it was a packaging error, so, downloaded the original source, (i.e., shorewall-init-4.4.23.3.tar.bz2), still couldn''t find file, or, way to generate it. Also, tried latest versions of both the 4.4 (4.4.27.3) and 4.5 (4.5.0.2) series, no bueno. Surely, I can''t be the only one trying to use shorewall-init with systemd. Is this an unsupported configuration? Did I miss something in the documentation? TIA 8<---8<---8<--- SOAPBOX ALERT! - BEGIN 8<---8<---8<--- Off topic, but, I mention this one time in every support mailing list I''m forced to join. In my opinion, mailing lists (like all "push" technologies) are an incredible waste of bandwidth. On busy lists, users are forced to wade through mountains of stuff they have no interest in, just to get to the answer to one question. They''re difficult to search, so the same questions get asked repeatedly. Shame that spam, porn, and warez killed usenet newsgroups, I really miss them as a support tool. While it''s certainly not the only tool available, I usually suggest bugzilla as a replacement for support mailing lists, it''s free, easy to administer, and, easy to use. Again, this is a one time only suggestion, don''t want to waste anymore bandwidth. 8<---8<---8<--- SOAPBOX ALERT! - END 8<---8<---8<--- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/
