To do that:</p> <ul> <li>cd to the distribution directory for the version of Seattle Firewall <u>that you are currently running </u>(NOT the version that you want to fall back to).</li> <li>Type "./fallback.sh"</li> </ul> <h3><strong><u>Warning:</u> The fallback script will replace /etc/shorewall/policy, /etc/shorewall/rules, /etc/shorewall/interfaces, /etc/shorewall/nat, /etc/shorewall/proxyarp and /etc/shorewall/masq with the version of these files from before the current version was installed. Any changes to any of these files will be lost.</strong></h3> <h2><a name="rpm"></a>Falling Back to the Previous Version of Shorewall using rpm</h2> <p>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=0noarch.rpm" would fall back to the 3.1-0 version of Shorewall).</p> <h2><a name="uninstall"></a>Uninstalling Shorewall</h2> <p>If you no longer wish to use Shorewall, you may remove it by:</p> <ul> <li>cd to the distribution directory for the version of Shorewall that you have installed.</li> <li>type "./uninstall.sh"</li> </ul> <p>If you installed using an rpm, at a root shell prompt type "rpm -e shorewall".</p> <p><font size="2">Last updated 3/26/2001 - </font><font size="2"> <a href="support.htm">Tom Eastep</a></font> </p> <a href="copyright.htm"><font size="2">Copyright</font> � <font size="2">2001, 2002 Thomas M.
