<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066"><u>To those of you who downloaded the 1.1.13 updated firewall script prior
to Sept 20, 2001:</u></font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">Prior
to 20:00 20 Sept 2001 GMT, the link under 1.1.13 pointed to a broken version
of the firewall script. This has now been corrected. I apologize for any confusion
this may have caused.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 align="Left">Version 1.1.18</h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">In the original .lrp, /etc/init.d/shorewall was not
secured for execute access. I have replaced the incorrect .lrp
(shorwall-1.1.18.lrp) with a corrected one (shorwall-1.1.18a.lrp).</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066">
Version 1.1.17</font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">In
shorewall.conf, ADD_IP_ALIASES was incorrectly spelled
IP_ADD_ALIASAES. There is a corrected version of the file <a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.17/shorewall.conf">here.</a></p>
<p align="Left">This
problem is also corrected in version 1.1.18.</p>

<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066">
Version 1.1.16</font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">
The ADD_IP_ALIASES variable added in 1.1.16 was incorrectly spelled IP_ADD_ALIASES
in the firewall script. To correct this problem, install the <a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.16/firewall">
corrected firewall script</a>
in the location pointed to by the symbolic link /etc/shorewall/firewall.</p>

Version 1.1.13</font></h3>

<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066">
Version 1.1.12</font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">
The LRP version of Shorewall 1.1.12 has the incorrect /etc/shorewall/functions
file. This incorrect file results in many error messages of the form:</p>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">
separate_list: not found</p>
</blockquote>
<p align="Left"><a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.12/functions">
The correct file may be obtained here</a>
. This problem is also corrected in version 1.1.13.</p>

Version 1.1.11</font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">
There are no known problems with this version.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066">
Version 1.1.10</font></h3>
<blockquote>
<p align="Left">
If the following conditions were met:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p align="Left">
A LAN segment attached to the firewall was served by a DHCP server
running on the firewall.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p align="Left">
There were entries in /etc/shorewall/hosts that referred to the
interface to that LAN segment.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p align="Left">
then up until now it has been necessary to include entries for 0.0.0.0
and 255.255.255.255 for that interface in /etc/shorewall/hosts. <a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.10/firewall">
This version of the firewall script</a>
makes those additions unnecessary provided that you simply include
"dhcp" in the options for the interface in /etc/shorewall/interfaces.
Install the script into the location pointed to by the symbolic link
/etc/shorewall/firewall.</p>
<p align="Left">
This problem has also been corrected in version 1.1.11.</p>

<h3 align="Left"><font color="#660066">
Version 1.1.9</font></h3>
<ul>
<li>The shorewall "hits" command lists extraneous service names in the final
report. <a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.9/shorewall">
This version of the shorewall script</a>
corrects this problem.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 align="Left">Version 1.1.8</h3>
<ul>
<li>Under some circumstances, the "dhcp" option on an interface triggers
a bug in the firewall script that results in a "chain already exists"
error. <a href="ftp://ftp.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/errata/1.1.8/firewall">
This version of the firewall script</a>
corrects this problem. Install it into the location pointed to by
the symbolic link /etc/shorewall/firewall.<br>
<br>
This problem is also corrected in version 1.1.9.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<h3 align="Left">Version 1.1.7</h3>
<ul>
<li>If the /etc/shorewall/rules template from version 1.1.7 is used, a warning
message appears during firewall startup:<br>
<br>
<20><><EFBFBD> Warning: Invalid Target - rule "@ icmp-unreachable packet."
ignored<br>
<br>
This warning may be eliminated by replacing the "@" in column 1 of
line 17 with "#"</li>
</ul>
