Shorewall 1.3.4 is available: 1. A new /etc/shorewall/routestopped file has been added. This file is intended to eventually replace the routestopped option in the /etc/shorewall/interface and /etc/ shorewall/hosts files. This new file makes remote firewall administration easier by allowing any IP or subnet to be enabled while Shorewall is stopped. 2. An /etc/shorewall/stopped

On April 26, I announced that I would no longer be supporting the Quick Start Guide and Sample configurations. Since both continue to be either wrong or out of date, all links to the Quick Start Guide have been removed from the Shorewall web site until further notice. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy AIM: tmeastep \ http://www.shorewall.net ICQ: #60745924 \

There is also a project called ''Samples'' that contains the sample files. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy AIM: tmeastep \ http://www.shorewall.net ICQ: #60745924 \ teastep@shorewall.net

Shorewall 1.3.9 is available. In this release: 1. DNS Names are now allowed in Shorewall config files (I still recommend against using them however). 2. The connection SOURCE may now be qualified by both interface and IP address in a Shorewall rule. 3. Shorewall startup is now disabled after initial installation until the file /etc/shorewall/startup_disabled is removed. 4. The

Hello, I published two new guides: * https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_NT4_PDC_quickstart A documentation, how to set up Samba as an NT4 PDC. I called it "Quickstart", because it covers only the basic stuff. * https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Robocopy_based_SysVol_replication_workaround For those of you having Samba DCs and Windows DCs in their domain.

I have purchased a license for Vexira MailArmor (an antivirus product) and the good news is that it is installed and working at shorewall.net. The bad news is that I have yet to get Vexira running together with SpamAssassin :-( As things currently stand, list posts will be protected from viruses but may contain Spam. I''ll continue to work to correct this situation. -Tom -- Tom Eastep

I have the Asterisk book, it's enormous, the 4th edition as per http://www.asteriskdocs.org/. I'd like to do something like: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+quickstart just to have two hardphones act as extensions and call each other. Is that a reasonable first task? I'm looking for the simplest litmus test for functionality possible. thanks, Thufir

The 1.2 firewall contains messy logic to support the old sample configurations in that any rule that contains "none" in any of its columns is ignored. I''m considering removing that messiness in 1.3 and seek the opinion of the list.

I just burned 3 hours figuring out Subversion, so I made up a little quickstart guide. Try the guide and see if you can get version control going in ... say ... 30 minutes? I assume your situation is: You are setting up version control on a new subdirectory on your computer. You will copy your entire rails project directory tree into the new subdirectory after you get subversion running.

The ''firewall'' and ''functions'' file in CVS together produce a 30%+ speedup of ''shorewall restart'' on my firewall when compared to 1.3.11a. Please test with these files -- I don''t anticipate making any more performance changes for 1.3.12 and I want to be sure that I didn''t break anything. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall

I have implemented the ability to specify ''all'' in the SOURCE and DESTINATION columns of the rules file and I''m not sure I like the result. The code is in CVS if any of you are interested in giving it a try. If you do try it, please let me know what you think. If you specify ''all'' in those columns it must not be qualified (may not be followed by

Rafa³ Dutko has just discovered a potentially serious bug in version 1.3.0 and 1.3.1. In both versions, where an interface option appears on multiple interfaces, the option may only be applied to the first interface on which it appears. A corrected firewall script for 1.3.1 is available at: http://www.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.3.1/firewall and

Shorewall 1.2.4 will have the following changes: a) ''#'' comments now allowed at end-of-line in all config files. b) Firewall zone may be renamed c) Protection against concurrent state-changing operations (start, stop, restart, refresh, clear) d) ''shorewall start'' no longer fails if ''detect'' is specified for an interface with netmask
