style="border: 0px solid ; width: 28px; height: 12px;"
src="images/new10.gif" alt="(New)" title=""></b></p>
<p>This is a bugfix rollup of the following problem corrections:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>Tuomo Soini has supplied a correction to a problem that
occurs
using some versions of 'ash'. The symptom is that "shorewall start"
fails with:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; local: --limit: bad variable name<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; iptables v1.2.8: Couldn't load match
`-j':/lib/iptables/libipt_-j.so:<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more
information.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Andres Zhoglo has supplied a correction that avoids trying
to use the multiport match iptables facility on ICMP rules.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Example of rule that previously caused "shorewall start"
to fail:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
ACCEPT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; loc&nbsp; $FW&nbsp;
icmp&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 0,8,11,12<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Previously, if the following error message was issued,
Shorewall was left in an inconsistent state.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Error: Unable to determine the routes routes through
interface xxx<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Handling of the LOGUNCLEAN option in shorewall.conf has
been corrected.</li>
<li>In Shorewall 1.4.2, an optimization was added. This
optimization
involved creating a chain named "&lt;zone&gt;_frwd" for most zones
defined using the /etc/shorewall/hosts file. It has since been
discovered that in many cases these new chains contain redundant rules
and that the "optimization" turns out to be less than optimal. The
implementation has now been corrected.</li>
<li>When the MARK value in a tcrules entry is followed by ":F"
or
":P", the ":F" or ":P" was previously only applied to the first
Netfilter rule generated by the entry. It is now applied to all entries.</li>

<b>Problems Corrected since version 1.4.6:</b><br>
<ol>
<li>Previously, if TC_ENABLED is set to yes in shorewall.conf
then Shorewall would fail to start with the error "ERROR: &nbsp;Traffic
Control requires Mangle"; that problem has been corrected.</li>
<li>Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column of
the
tcrules file. Previously, these addresses resulted in an invalid
iptables
command.</li>
<li>The "shorewall stop" command is now disabled when
/etc/shorewall/startup_disabled
exists. This prevents people from shooting themselves in the foot prior
to
having configured Shorewall.</li>
<li>A change introduced in version 1.4.6 caused error messages
during
"shorewall [re]start" when ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes and ip addresses were
being
added to a PPP interface; the addresses were successfully added in
spite
of the messages.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>
The firewall script has been modified to eliminate the error messages.</li>
