# >>>>>>>>>>>>> NOTE TO USERS UPGRADING FROM 2.x <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
#
# Most problems associated with upgrades come from two causes:
#
# - The user didn't read and follow the migration considerations in the
# release notes.
#
# - The user mis-handled the /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf file during
# upgrade. Shorewall is designed to allow the default behavior of
# the product to evolve over time. To make this possible, the design
# assumes that you will not replace your current shorewall.conf file
# during upgrades. If you feel absolutely compelled to have the latest
# comments and options in your shorewall.conf then you must proceed
# carefully.
#
# The new/changed options in shorewall 3.0 are listed below. If you don't
# want to convert to the new 3.0 format for /etc/shorewall/zones and you
# don't want to replace your current rules that use 2.x builtin actions,
# then if you plan to use the 3.0 shorewall.conf file then you must change
# it as follows:
#
# - SPECFILE
#
# The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has IPSECFILE=zones. You want to
# set it to IPSECFILE=ipsec. This will indicate that your
# /etc/shorewall/zones file is in the pre-3.0 format.
#
# - FW
#
# The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has FW undefined. If you have
# named your firewall zone something other than 'fw' then you
# must set FW accordingly.
#
# - MAPOLDACTIONS
#
# The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has MAPOLDACTIONS=No. You want to
# set it to MAPOLDACTIONS=Yes in order to permit rules that use
# the 2.x builtin actions such as AllowPing to continue to work.
