This is a minor release of Shorewall.
In this release:
1. A new "logwatch" command has been added to the /sbin/shorewall program.
2. Shorewall can now take advantage of the Netfilter 'multiport' match
function (kernel configuration option CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MULTIPORT).
3. Dynamic blacklisting is now supported through the use of three new
commands in /sbin/shorewall:
deny - drop packets from one or more hosts.
reject - reject packets from one or more hosts.
allow - reverse the effect of a prior 'deny' or 'reject' command.
save - save the current dynamic blacklisting settings so that they
will be applied the next time that Shorewall is started.
4. The 'firewall', 'version' and 'functions' files have been moved from
/etc/shorewall to /var/lib/shorewall.
