Beta 2 is now available for testing.
Problems Corrected since Beta 1:
1) This release contains defect repair up through release 4.6.2.4.
2) Previously, when an interface specified the 'physical=' option and
the physical interface name was specified in the INTERFACES column
of the providers file, compilation would fail with diagnostics
similar to the following:
Use of uninitialized value $physical in pattern match
(m//) at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.18.1/
Shorewall/Providers.pm line 463, <$currentfile> line 2.
ERROR: A provider interface must have at least one
associated zone /opt/etc/shorewall/providers (line 2)
New Features since Beta 1:
1) A DNSAmp action has been added. This action matches recursive UDP
DNS queries. The default disposition is DROP which can be
overridden by the single action parameter (e.g, 'DNSAmp(REJECT)'
will reject these queries). Recursive DNS queries are the basis for
'DNS Amplification' attacks; hence the action name.
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
