2) Shorewall has always been very noisy (lots of messages). No more. The default
is now to be very quiet and you get more detail using the -v option (or -vv if
you want the old noisy behavior). The -q option is still supported but only
reverses the effect of -v. So "shorewall start -qqvv" is still completely quiet
while "shorewall start -vv" gives the same amount of output as the old "shorewall
start" did.
for new users is now to be very quiet and you get more detail using the -v option
(or -vv if you want the old noisy behavior).
You set the default level of verbosity using the VERBOSE option in
shorewall.conf. If you don't set it (as would be the case of you use your
old shorewall.conf file) then VERBOSE defaults to a value of 2 which is
the old default. A value of 1 supporesses some of the output (like the old
-q option did) while a value of 0 makes Shorewall almost silent. That is
the value specified in the 3.2 shorewall.conf
If the default is set at 2, you can still make a command silent by using two
"q"s (e.g., shorewall -qq restart).
In summary, each "q" subtracts one from VERBOSE while each "v" adds one to
VERBOSE.
