</small>Shorewall cannot:<br>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Be used to filter traffic through a Layer 2 Bridge</li>
|
|
<li>Act as a "Personal Firewall" that allows internet access by
|
|
application.</li>
|
|
<li>Be used with an Operating System other than Linux (version >=
|
|
2.4.0)<br>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Do content filtering -- better to use <a
|
|
href="Shorewall_Squid_Usage.html">Squid</a> for that.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
In addition:<br>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shorewall does not contain any support for Netfilter <span
|
|
style="font-style: italic;">Patch-O-Matic</span> features -- Shorewall
|
|
only supports features from released kernels.<br>
|
