This is becoming a FAQ and should probably be added to the docs.

Shorewall 1.3.9
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

Spam vs. Viruses
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.

More speedups in CVS
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.

Serious Bug found in Shorewall 1.3.x
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

Your opinion please
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.
Thanks,

''all'' in rules file
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

Shorewall 1.3.4
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

Shorewall 1.2.11 Available
In this release:
1. The ''try'' command now accepts an optional timeout. If the timeout is
given in the command, the standard configuration will automatically
be restarted after the new configuration has been running for that
length of time. This prevents a remote admin from being locked out
of the firewall in the case where the new configuration starts but

Shorewall 1.2.10
This is a minor release of Shorewall.
In this release:
1. A "shorewall try" command has been added. This command attempts to
restart Shorewall using an alternate configuration and if that
attempt fails, Shorewall is automatically started with the default
configuration. This is useful for remote administration where a
failed restart of Shorewall can leave you isolated from

IANA Reserved Addresses Tool
Andy Wiggin has contribued a Python program that reads
http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space and creates a list of
reserved subnets suitable for inclusion in /etc/shorewall/rfc1918. The
list produced by Andy''s program will be included in the rfc1918 file
included in version 1.3.2 (it''s available now from CVS).
Thanks Andy!

Shorewall.net back on line
The maintenance (adding RAM) took a little longer than I planned:
1) Shutdown - 1 minute
2) Open Case - 30 seconds
At this point, I emember that I can''t add RAM to this box without removing
the Mother Board (hinge-mounted in case) - slap forehead.
3) Remove cables, PCI NIC & MB - 2 minutes
4) Add RAM - 1 Minute
5) Get the %$#@ MB back in the case and aligned -- 15 Minutes

New in CVS
The ''firewall'' script currently in the /Shorewall CVS project:
a) Is approximately 15% faster starting/restarting on my configuration --
please report your experiences with it.
b) Reloads Traffic Control/Shaping as part of "shorewall refresh"
c) Turns off the shell trace after an error has occured (except when the
command being traced is "stop" or
