<h3>Version &gt;= 1.3.7</h3>
<p>Users specifying ALLOWRELATED=No in
/etc/shorewall.conf will need to include the
following rules in their /etc/shorewall/icmpdef
file (creating this file if necessary):</p>
<pre> run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type echo-reply -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type source-quench -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type time-exceeded -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type parameter-problem -j ACCEPT</pre>
<p>Users having an /etc/shorewall/icmpdef file may remove the &quot;.
/etc/shorewall/icmp.def&quot; command from that file since the icmp.def file is now
empty.</p>
<h3><b><a name="Bering">Upgrading </a>Bering to
Shorewall &gt;= 1.3.3</b></h3>
<p>To properly upgrade with Shorewall version
1.3.3 and later:</p>
<ol>
<li>Be sure you have a backup -- you will need
to transcribe any Shorewall configuration
changes that you have made to the new
configuration.</li>
<li>Replace the shorwall.lrp package provided on
the Bering floppy with the later one. If you did
not obtain the later version from Jacques's
site, see additional instructions below.</li>
<li>Edit the /var/lib/lrpkg/root.exclude.list
file and remove the /var/lib/shorewall entry if
present. Then do not forget to backup root.lrp !</li>
</ol>
<p>The .lrp that I release isn't set up for a two-interface firewall like
Jacques's. You need to follow the <a href="two-interface.htm">instructions for
setting up a two-interface firewall</a> plus you also need to add the following
two Bering-specific rules to /etc/shorewall/rules:</p>
<blockquote>
<pre># Bering specific rules:
# allow loc to fw udp/53 for dnscache to work
# allow loc to fw tcp/80 for weblet to work
#
ACCEPT loc fw udp 53
ACCEPT loc fw tcp 80</pre>
</blockquote>
<h3 align="Left">Version &gt;= 1.3.6</h3>
<p align="Left">If you have a pair of firewall systems configured for
failover, you will need to modify your firewall setup slightly under
Shorewall versions &gt;= 1.3.6. </p>
<ol>
<li>

the following rule<br>

# from non-SYN packets after takeover.<br>
&nbsp;</font></li>
<li>
<p align="Left">Create /etc/shorewall/common (if you don't already
have that file) and include the following:<br>
<br>
<font face="Courier">run_iptables -A common -p tcp --tcp-flags
ACK,FIN,RST ACK -j ACCEPT #Accept Acks to rebuild connection<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
