Shorewall 3.0.3
Note to users upgrading from Shorewall 2.x
Most problems associated with upgrades come from two causes:
- The user didn't read and follow the migration considerations in these
release notes.
- The user mis-handled the /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf file during
upgrade. Shorewall is designed to allow the default behavior of
the product to evolve over time. To make this possible, the design
assumes that you will not replace your current shorewall.conf file
during upgrades. If you feel absolutely compelled to have the latest
comments and options in your shorewall.conf then you must proceed
carefully.
The new/changed options in shorewall 3.0 are listed below. If you don't
want to convert to the new 3.0 format for /etc/shorewall/zones and you
don't want to replace your current rules that use 2.x builtin actions,
then if you plan to use the 3.0 shorewall.conf file then you must change
it as follows:
- SPECFILE The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has IPSECFILE=zones. You want to
set it to IPSECFILE=ipsec. This will indicate that your
/etc/shorewall/zones file is in the pre-3.0 format.
- FW The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has FW undefined. If you have
named your firewall zone something other than 'fw' then you
must set FW accordingly.
- MAPOLDACTIONS
The 3.0 shorewall.conf file has MAPOLDACTIONS=No. You want to
set it to MAPOLDACTIONS=Yes in order to permit rules that use
the 2.x builtin actions such as AllowPing to continue to work.
Problems Corrected in 3.0.3
