1) On systems running Upstart, shorewall-init cannot reliably secure the firewall before interfaces are brought up. 2) An issue with params processing on RHEL6 manifested as the following type of warning: WARNING: Param line (export OLDPWD) ignored at /usr/share/shorewall/Shorewall/Config.pm line 2993. Corrected in Shorewall 4.4.18.1 3) The Shorewall Lite and Shorewall6 Lite installers fail to install the 'helpers' modules file, with the result that both 'shorewall[6]-lite show capabilities' and 'shorecap' fail. Workaround: Copy the 'helpers' file from the Administrative System to the firewall system. Corrected in Shorewall 4.4.18.1
