Ok -- I''m wearing the brown bag tonight (I''ve airmailed one to Tuomas as well :-) ). The IPTABLES patch had some problems when IPTABLES was not set in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. Beta 6 fixes those (I hope) and also corrects a rather obscure problem with "shorewall add" when the "mss" option appears in /etc/shorewall/ipsec. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \

I missed a couple of new features: 1) You can now use the "shorewall show zones" command to display the current contents of the zones.

Seems like shorewall can''t handle device names like: eth0.3 very properly. That''s default naming of vlan devices. eth1 is master device and 3 is id of my test vlan. So when I added to interfaces line: home eth0.3 detect seems like
