<p><b>1/17/2003 - shorewall.net has MOVED</b><b></b></p>
<p>Thanks to the generosity of Alex Martin and <a
href="http://www.rettc.com">Rett Consulting</a>, www.shorewall.net and
ftp.shorewall.net are now hosted on a system in Bellevue, Washington. A
big thanks to Alex for making this happen.<br>
</p>
<p><b>1/13/2003 - Shorewall 1.3.13</b><br>
</p>
<p>Just includes a few things that I had on the burner:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>A new 'DNAT-' action has been added for entries in the
/etc/shorewall/rules file. DNAT- is intended for advanced users who wish
to minimize the number of rules that connection requests must traverse.<br>
<br>
A Shorewall DNAT rule actually generates two iptables rules: a
header rewriting rule in the 'nat' table and an ACCEPT rule in the 'filter'
table. A DNAT- rule only generates the first of these rules. This is handy
when you have several DNAT rules that would generate the same ACCEPT rule.<br>
<br>
   Here are three rules from my previous rules file:<br>
<br>
        DNAT   net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.178<br>
        DNAT   net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.179<br>
        ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp www,smtp,ftp,...<br>
<br>
   These three rules ended up generating _three_ copies of<br>
<br>
         ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp<br>
<br>
   By writing the rules this way, I end up with only one copy of
the ACCEPT rule.<br>
<br>
        DNAT-  net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp -  206.124.146.178<br>
        DNAT-  net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp -  206.124.146.179<br>
        ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp www,smtp,ftp,....<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The 'shorewall check' command now prints out the applicable
policy between each pair of zones.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A new CLEAR_TC option has been added to shorewall.conf.
If this option is set to 'No' then Shorewall won't clear the current
traffic control rules during [re]start. This setting is intended for
use by people that prefer to configure traffic shaping when the network
interfaces come up rather than when the firewall is started. If that
is what you want to do, set TC_ENABLED=Yes and CLEAR_TC=No and do not
supply an /etc/shorewall/tcstart file. That way, your traffic shaping
rules can still use the 'fwmark' classifier based on packet marking defined
in /etc/shorewall/tcrules.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A new SHARED_DIR variable has been added that allows
distribution packagers to easily move the shared directory (default /usr/lib/shorewall).
Users should never have a need to change the value of this shorewall.conf
setting.<br>
</li>

<p><b>12/27/2002 - Shorewall 1.3.12 Released</b><b>
</b></p>
<p> Features include:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>"shorewall refresh" now reloads the traffic
shaping rules (tcrules and tcstart).</li>
<li>"shorewall debug [re]start" now turns off debugging
after an error occurs. This places the point of the failure near
the end of the trace rather than up in the middle of it.</li>
<li>"shorewall [re]start" has been speeded up by
more than 40% with my configuration. Your milage may vary.</li>
<li>A "shorewall show classifiers" command has been
added which shows the current packet classification filters. The
output from this command is also added as a separate page in "shorewall
monitor"</li>
<li>ULOG (must be all caps) is now accepted as a
valid syslog level and causes the subject packets to be logged using
the ULOG target rather than the LOG target. This allows you to run
ulogd (available from <a
href="http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd">http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd</a>)
and log all Shorewall messages <a
href="shorewall_logging.html">to a separate log file</a>.</li>
<li>If you are running a kernel that has a FORWARD
chain in the mangle table ("shorewall show mangle" will show you
the chains in the mangle table), you can set MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN=Yes
in <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This allows for
marking input packets based on their destination even when you are
using Masquerading or SNAT.</li>
<li>I have cluttered up the /etc/shorewall directory
with empty 'init', 'start', 'stop' and 'stopped' files. If you already
have a file with one of these names, don't worry -- the upgrade process
won't overwrite your file.</li>
<li>I have added a new RFC1918_LOG_LEVEL variable
to <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This
variable specifies the syslog level at which packets are logged as
a result of entries in the /etc/shorewall/rfc1918 file. Previously,
these packets were always logged at the 'info' level.<br>
</li>
</ol>
<p><b>12/20/2002 - Shorewall 1.3.12 Beta 3</b><br>
</p>
This version corrects a problem with Blacklist logging.
In Beta 2, if BLACKLIST_LOG_LEVEL was set to anything but ULOG, the
firewall would fail to start and "shorewall refresh" would also fail.<br>

documenation. the PDF may be downloaded from</p>

<p><b>1/17/2003 - shorewall.net has MOVED</b><b> </b><b>  </b></p>
<p>Thanks to the generosity of Alex Martin and <a
href="http://www.rettc.com">Rett Consulting</a>, www.shorewall.net and ftp.shorewall.net
are now hosted on a system in Bellevue, Washington. A big thanks to Alex
for making this happen.<br>
</p>
<p><b>1/13/2003 - Shorewall 1.3.13</b><b> </b><b><img border="0"
src="images/new10.gif" width="28" height="12" alt="(New)">
</b><br>
</p>
<p>Just includes a few things that I had on the burner:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>A new 'DNAT-' action has been added for entries in the
/etc/shorewall/rules file. DNAT- is intended for advanced users who wish
to minimize the number of rules that connection requests must traverse.<br>
<br>
A Shorewall DNAT rule actually generates two iptables rules: a header
rewriting rule in the 'nat' table and an ACCEPT rule in the 'filter'
table. A DNAT- rule only generates the first of these rules. This is
handy when you have several DNAT rules that would generate the same ACCEPT
rule.<br>
<br>
   Here are three rules from my previous rules file:<br>
<br>
        DNAT   net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.178<br>
        DNAT   net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.179<br>
        ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp www,smtp,ftp,...<br>
<br>
   These three rules ended up generating _three_ copies of<br>
<br>
         ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp<br>
<br>
   By writing the rules this way, I end up with only one copy of
the ACCEPT rule.<br>
<br>
        DNAT-  net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp -  206.124.146.178<br>
        DNAT-  net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp -  206.124.146.179<br>
        ACCEPT net  dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp www,smtp,ftp,....<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The 'shorewall check' command now prints out the applicable
policy between each pair of zones.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A new CLEAR_TC option has been added to shorewall.conf.
If this option is set to 'No' then Shorewall won't clear the current traffic
control rules during [re]start. This setting is intended for use by people
that prefer to configure traffic shaping when the network interfaces
come up rather than when the firewall is started. If that is what you
want to do, set TC_ENABLED=Yes and CLEAR_TC=No and do not supply an /etc/shorewall/tcstart
file. That way, your traffic shaping rules can still use the 'fwmark'
classifier based on packet marking defined in /etc/shorewall/tcrules.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A new SHARED_DIR variable has been added that allows
distribution packagers to easily move the shared directory (default /usr/lib/shorewall).
Users should never have a need to change the value of this shorewall.conf
setting.</li>

<p> Features include:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>"shorewall refresh" now reloads the traffic shaping
rules (tcrules and tcstart).</li>
<li>"shorewall debug [re]start" now turns off debugging
after an error occurs. This places the point of the failure near
the end of the trace rather than up in the middle of it.</li>
<li>"shorewall [re]start" has been speeded up by
more than 40% with my configuration. Your milage may vary.</li>
<li>A "shorewall show classifiers" command has been
added which shows the current packet classification filters. The
output from this command is also added as a separate page in "shorewall
monitor"</li>
<li>ULOG (must be all caps) is now accepted as a
valid syslog level and causes the subject packets to be logged using
the ULOG target rather than the LOG target. This allows you to run
ulogd (available from <a
href="http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd">http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd</a>)
and log all Shorewall messages <a
href="shorewall_logging.html">to a separate log file</a>.</li>
<li>If you are running a kernel that has a FORWARD
chain in the mangle table ("shorewall show mangle" will show you
the chains in the mangle table), you can set MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN=Yes
in <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This allows for
marking input packets based on their destination even when you are
using Masquerading or SNAT.</li>
<li>I have cluttered up the /etc/shorewall directory
with empty 'init', 'start', 'stop' and 'stopped' files. If you
already have a file with one of these names, don't worry -- the upgrade
process won't overwrite your file.</li>
<li>I have added a new RFC1918_LOG_LEVEL variable
to <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This variable
specifies the syslog level at which packets are logged as a result
of entries in the /etc/shorewall/rfc1918 file. Previously, these packets
were always logged at the 'info' level.</li>
