Falling Back to the Previous Version of Shorewall using the
Fallback Script
If you install Shorewall and discover that it doesn't work for you,
you can fall back to your previously installed version. To do that:
cd to the distribution directory for the version of Shoreline
Firewall that you want to fall back to.
Type ./install.sh
Falling Back to the Previous Version of Shorewall using rpm
If your previous version of Shorewall was installed using RPM, you
may fall back to that version by typing rpm -Uvh --force <old
rpm>
at a root shell prompt (Example: rpm -Uvh --force
/downloads/shorewall-3.1.1-0.noarch.rpm
would fall back to the
3.1.1-0 version of Shorewall).
Uninstalling Shorewall
If you no longer wish to use Shorewall, you may remove it by:
cd to the distribution directory for the version of Shorewall
that you have installed.
type ./uninstall.sh
If you installed using an rpm, at a root shell prompt type
rpm -e shorewall
.
If you specified LIBEXEC and/or PERLLIB when you installed
Shorewall, you must specify the same value to the uninstall script.
e.g., LIBEXEC=libexec ./uninstall.sh.
