11) You may now specify "!" followed by a list of addresses in the
SOURCE and DEST columns of entries in /etc/shorewall/tcrules and
Shorewall will generate the rule that you expect.
12) Tunnel types "openvpnserver" and "openvpnclient" have been added
to reflect the introduction of client and server OpenVPN
configurations in OpenVPN 2.0.
13) The COMMAND variable is now set to 'restore' in restore
scripts. The value of this variable is sometimes of interest to
programmers providing custom /etc/shorewall/tcstart scripts.
14) If you have problems with ethernet interfaces switching names when
your system is rebooted, you can now work around the problem. For
each interface, select a shell variable name and set the variable
to the value echoed by the 'find_interface_by_mac' function.
Example: To set EXT_IF to the interface with MAC address
00:02:e3:08:55:fa, in /etc/shorewall/params:
EXT_IF=$(find_interface_by_mac 00:02:e3:08:55:fa)
Now simply use $EXT_IF any time that you wish to refer to that
interface.
WARNING: If you have this problem, you will not wish to use the
"-f" option in the Shorewall SysV init script (usually named
/etc/init.d/shorewall).
