capabilities were mis-detected.<br>

Issues when migrating from Shorewall 2.0.0 to Shorewall 2.0.1:<br>
<ol>
<li>Extension Scripts -- In order for extension scripts to work
</ol>
Issues when migrating from Shorewall 2.0.1 to Shorewall 2.0.2:<br>
<ol>
<li>Extension Scripts -- In order for extension scripts to work
properly with the new iptables-save/restore integration (see New
Feature 1 below), some change may be required to your extension
scripts. If your extension scripts are executing commands other than
iptables then those commands must also be written to the restore file
(a temporary file in /var/lib/shorewall that is renamed
/var/lib/shorewall/restore-base at the end of the operation).<br>
<br>
<br>
The following functions should be of help:<br>
<br>
<br>
A. save_command() -- saves the passed command to the restore file.<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Example:<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; save_command echo Operation
Complete<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; That command would simply write "echo Operation Complete"
to the restore file.<br>
<br>
<br>
B. run_and_save_command() -- saves the passed command to the restore
file then executes it. The return value is the exit status of the
command.<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp; &nbsp; Example:<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; run_and_save_command "echo 1 &gt;
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all"<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Note that as in this example, when the command
involves file redirection then the entire command must be enclosed in
quotes. This applies to all of the functions described here.<br>
<br>
<br>
C. ensure_and_save_command() -- runs the passed command. If the command
fails, the firewall is restored to it's prior saved state and the
operation is terminated. If the command succeeds, the command is
written to the restore file.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Dynamic Zone support -- If you don't need to use the
<br>
</li>
<li>Dynamic Zone support -- If you don't need to use the
"shorewall add" and "shorewall delete commands, you should set

</ol>
</ol>
New Features:<br>
<ol>
<li>Shorewall has now been integrated with
<ol>
<li>Shorewall has now been integrated with
iptables-save/iptables-restore to provide very fast start and restart.
The elements of this integration are as follows:<br>
<br>
<br>
a) The 'shorewall save' command now saves the current configuration in
addition to the current dynamic blacklist. If you have dynamic zones,
you will want to issue 'shorewall save' when the zones are empty or the
current contents of the zones will be restored by the 'shorewall
restore' and 'shorewall -f start' commands.<br>
<br>
<br>
b) The 'shorewall restore' command has been added. This command
restores the configuration at the time of the last 'save'.<br>
<br>
<br>
c) The -f (fast) option has been added to 'shorewall start'. When
specified (e.g. 'shorewall -f start'), shorewall will perform a
'shorewall restore' if there is a saved configuration. If there is no
saved configuration, a normal 'shorewall start' is performed.<br>
<br>
<br>
d) The /etc/init.d/shorewall script now translates the 'start' command
into 'shorewall -f start' so that fast restart is possible.<br>
<br>
<br>
e) When a state-changing command encounters an error and there is
current saved configuration, that configuration will be restored
(currently, the firewall is placed in the 'stopped' state).<br>
<br>
<br>
f) If you have previously saved the running configuration and want
Shorewall to discard it, use the 'shorewall forget' command. WARNING:
iptables 1.2.9 is broken with respect to iptables-save; if your kernel
has connection tracking match support, you must patch iptables 1.2.9
with the iptables patch availale from the Shorewall errata page.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The previous implementation of dynamic zones was difficult
<br>
</li>
<li>The previous implementation of dynamic zones was difficult
to maintain. I have changed the code to make dynamic zones optional
under the control of the DYNAMIC_ZONES option in
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>In earlier Shorewall 2.0 releases, Shorewall searches in
<br>
</li>
<li>In earlier Shorewall 2.0 releases, Shorewall searches in
order the following directories for configuration files.<br>
<br>
<br>
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified using the -c
option.<br>
b) /etc/shorewall<br>
c) /usr/share/shorewall<br>
<br>
<br>
In this release, the CONFIG_PATH option is added to shorewall.conf.
CONFIG_PATH contains a list of directory names separated by colons
(":"). If not set or set to a null value (e.g., CONFIG_PATH="") then
"CONFIG_PATH=/etc/shorewall:/usr/share/shorewall" is assumed. Now
Shorewall searches for shorewall.conf according to the old rules and
for other configuration files as follows:<br>
<br>
<br>
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified using the -c
option.<br>
b) Each directory in $CONFIG_PATH is searched in sequence.<br>
<br>
<br>
In case it is not obvious, your CONFIG_PATH should include
/usr/share/shorewall and your shorewall.conf file must be in the
directory specified via -c or in a try command, in /etc/shorewall or in
/usr/share/shorewall.<br>
<br>
<br>
For distribution packagers, the default CONFIG_PATH is set in
/usr/share/shorewall/configpath. You can customize this file to have a
default that differs from mine.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Previously, in /etc/shorewall/nat a Yes (or yes) in the

</li>
<li>Previously, in /etc/shorewall/nat a Yes (or yes) in the
LOCAL column would only take effect if the ALL INTERFACES column also
contained Yes or yes. Now, the LOCAL columns contents are treated
independently of the contents of the ALL INTERFACES column.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The folks at Mandrake have created yet another kernel
<br>
</li>
<li>The folks at Mandrake have created yet another kernel
module naming convention (module names end in "ko.gz"). As a
consequence, beginning with this release, if MODULE_SUFFIX isn't
specified in shorewall.conf, then the default value is "o gz ko o.gz
ko.gz".<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>An updated bogons file is included in this release.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>In /etc/shorewall/rules and in action files generated from
<br>
</li>
<li>An updated bogons file is included in this release.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>In /etc/shorewall/rules and in action files generated from
/usr/share/shorewall/action.template, rules that perform logging can
specify an optional "log tag". A log tag is a string of alphanumeric
characters and is specified by following the log level with ":" and the
log tag.<br>
<br>
<br>
Example:<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ACCEPT:info:ftp
net&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; dmz&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
tcp&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 21<br>
<br>
<br>
The log tag is appended to the log prefix generated by the LOGPREFIX
variable in /etc/shorewall/conf. If "ACCEPT:info" generates the log
prefix "Shorewall:net2dmz:ACCEPT:" then "ACCEPT:info:ftp" will generate
@ -283,122 +366,128 @@ prefix "Shorewall:net2dmz:ACCEPT:" then "ACCEPT:info:ftp" will generate
length of a log prefix supported by iptables is 29 characters; if a
larger prefix is generated, Shorewall will issue a warning message and
will truncate the prefix to 29 characters.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A new "-q" option has been added to /sbin/shorewall
<br>
</li>
<li>A new "-q" option has been added to /sbin/shorewall
commands. It causes the start, restart, check and refresh commands to
produce much less output so that warning messages are more visible
(when testing this change, I discovered a bug where a bogus warning
message was being generated).<br>

<li>Shorewall now uses 'modprobe' to load kernel modules if
that utility is available in the PATH; otherwise, 'insmod' is used.<br>

</li>
<li>It is now possible to restrict entries in the
/etc/shorewall/masq file to particular protocols and destination
port(s). Two new columns (PROTO and PORT(S)) have been added to the
file.<br>
<br>
<br>
Example:<br>
<br>
<br>
You want all outgoing SMTP traffic entering the firewall on eth1 to be
sent from eth0 with source IP address 206.124.146.177. You want all
other outgoing traffic from eth1 to be sent from eth0 with source IP
address 206.124.146.176.<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; eth0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 206.124.146.177 tcp&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 25<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; eth0&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 206.124.146.176<br>
<br>
<br>
THE ORDER OF THE ABOVE TWO RULES IS SIGNIFICANT!!!!!<br>
<br>
<br>
Assuming that 10.0.0.0/8 is the only host/network connected to eth1,
the progress message at "shorewall start" would be:<br>
<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Masqueraded Networks and Hosts:<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To 0.0.0.0/0 (tcp 25) from
10.0.0.0/8 through eth0 using 206.124.146.177<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To 0.0.0.0/0 (all) from 10.0.0.0/8
through eth0 using 206.124.146.176<br>

<li>A new extension script 'initdone' has been added. This
script is invoked at the same point as the 'common' script was
previously and is useful for users who mis-used that script under
Shorewall 1.x (the script was intended for adding rules to the 'common'
chain but many users treated it as a script for adding rules before
Shorewall's).<br>
