install?</title>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Answer</emphasis>: When first installing
Shorewall 4.4.0 or later, you must install the <emphasis
role="bold">shorewall</emphasis> package. If you want to configure an
IPv6 firewall, you must also install <emphasis

<title>(FAQ 92a) Someone once told me to install shorewall-perl;
anything to that?</title>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Answer</emphasis>: That was good advice in
Shorewall 4.2 and earlier. In those releases, there were two packages
that provided the basic firewalling functionality: <emphasis
role="bold">shorewall-shell</emphasis> and <emphasis
role="bold">shorewall-perl</emphasis>. Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.0,
<emphasis role="bold">shorewall-shell</emphasis> is discontinued and
<emphasis role="bold">shorewall-perl</emphasis> was renamed <emphasis
role="bold">shorewall</emphasis>.</para>
