Shorewall 2.0.2-Beta 1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Problems Corrected since 2.0.1
None.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Issues when migrating from Shorewall 2.0.0 to Shorewall 2.0.1:
1) Dynamic Zone support.
If you don't need to use the "shorewall add" and "shorewall delete"
commands, you should set DYNAMIC_ZONES=No in
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf .
New Features:
1) The previous implementation of dynamic zones was difficult to
maintain. I have changed the code to make dynamic zones optional
under the control of the DYNAMIC_ZONES option in
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf.
2) In earlier Shorewall 2.0 releases, Shorewall searches in order the
following directories for configuration files.
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified using
the -c option.
b) /etc/shorewall
c) /usr/share/shorewall
In this release, the CONFIG_PATH option is added to shorewall.conf.
CONFIG_PATH contains a list of directory names separated by colons
(":"). If not set or set to a null value (e.g., CONFIG_PATH="") then
"CONFIG_PATH=/etc/shorewall:/usr/share/shorewall" is assumed.
Now Shorewall searches for shorewall.conf according to the old
rules and for other configuration files as follows:
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified using
the -c option.
b) Each directory in $CONFIG_PATH is searched in sequence.
In case it is not obvious, your CONFIG_PATH should include
/usr/share/shorewall and your shorewall.conf file must be in the
directory specified via -c or in a try command, in /etc/shorewall
or in /usr/share/shorewall.
