Shorewall 4.5.19 Beta 1 is now available for testing.

1) The shorewall-init.service file previously specified an incorrect
path name for the shorewall-init utility
2) Previously, the ''-q'' option did not suppress all output
from
certain commands such as ''check''.

1) On systems running Upstart, shorewall-init cannot reliably secure
the firewall before interfaces are brought up.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) The ''Limit'' action now produces a warning message stating
that it
is deprecated in favor of per-IP limiting using the RATE LIMIT
column.
2) Generation of logging rules has been largely re-written to directly
creatre rules in the compiler''s internal representation.
Previously, such rules were created in iptables format then
translated into the internal form.
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
