<para>I personally use LSM here at shorewall.net (configuration is

described <link linkend="Complete">below</link>). I have set things up
so that Shorewall [re]starts lsm during processing of the
<command>start</command> and <command>restore</command> commands. I
don't have Shorewall restart lsm during Shorewall
<command>restart</command> because I restart Shorewall much more often
than the average user is likely to do. I have Shorewall start lsm
because I have a dynamic IP address from one of my providers
(Comcast); Shorewall detects the default gateway to that provider and
creates a secondary configuration file
(<filename>/etc/lsm/shorewall.conf</filename>) that contains the link
configurations. That file is included by
<filename>/etc/lsm/lsm.conf</filename>.</para>
