  <warning>
    <para>These manpages are for Shorewall 4.0 only. They describe features
    and options not available on earlier releases.</para>
  </warning>

  <note>
    <para>The docbook to manpage translation tool that we are using has some
    indentation issues which require us to choose between correct output of
    the man command and correctly-indented HTML. We've chosen in favor of the
    man command so some of the manpages accessed through the links below have
    indentation problems. We're working to resolve these issues and ask for
    your patience.</para>
