+ (FAQ 87) My firewall starts and restarts fine but if I try
+ 'shorewall restore', the script fails because none of my shell variables
+ from /etc/shorewall/params are set. Why?
+
+ Answer: You probably need to set
+ EXPORTPARAMS=Yes. During start and
+ restart,
+ /etc/shorewall/params is processed by the shell
+ after set -a; as a result, all param
+ settings become part of the shell's environment and are inherited by the
+ running script. The shell does not process
+ /etc/shorewall/params when processing the restore command.
