<p><b>1/30/2004 - Shorewall 1.4.10</b></p>
<p>Problems Corrected since version 1.4.9</p>
<ol>
<li>The column descriptions in the action.template file did not
match the column headings. That has been corrected.</li>
<li>The presence of IPV6 addresses on devices generated error
messages during [re]start if ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes or ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes
are specified in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. These messages have
been eliminated.</li>
<li value="3">The CONTINUE action in /etc/shorewall/rules now

correctly. A couple of problems involving rate limiting have been
corrected. These bug fixes courtesy of Steven Jan Springl.</li>
<li>Shorewall now tried to avoid sending an ICMP response to
broadcasts and smurfs.</li>
<li>Specifying "-" or "all" in the PROTO column of an action no
longer causes a startup error. </li>
</ol>
Migragion Issues:<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; None.<br>
<br>
New Features:<br>
<ol>
<li>The INTERFACE column in the /etc/shorewall/masq file may

</li>
<li>Output traffic control rules (those with the firewall as
the
source) may now be qualified by the effective userid and/or effective
group id of the program generating the output. This feature is courtesy

<p>Problems Corrected since version 1.4.9</p>
<ol>
<li>The column descriptions in the action.template file did not
match the column headings. That has been corrected.</li>
<li>The presence of IPV6 addresses on devices generated error
messages during [re]start if ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes or ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes
are specified in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. These messages have
been eliminated.</li>
<li value="3">The CONTINUE action in /etc/shorewall/rules now
works
correctly. A couple of problems involving rate limiting have been
corrected. These bug fixes courtesy of Steven Jan Springl.</li>
<li>Shorewall now tried to avoid sending an ICMP response to
broadcasts and smurfs.</li>
<li>Specifying "-" or "all" in the PROTO column of an action no
longer causes a startup error. </li>
</ol>
Migragion Issues:<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; None.<br>
<br>
New Features:<br>
<ol>
<li>The INTERFACE column in the /etc/shorewall/masq file may
now specify a destination list. <br>
<br>
Example:<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #INTERFACE&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SUBNET&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ADDRESS<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; eth0:192.0.2.3,192.0.2.16/28&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; eth1<br>
<br>
If the list begins with "!" then SNAT will occur only if the
destination IP address is NOT included in the list.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Output traffic control rules (those with the firewall as
the
source) may now be qualified by the effective userid and/or effective
group id of the program generating the output. This feature is courtesy
of&nbsp; Frédéric LESPEZ.<br>
<br>
A new USER column has been added to /etc/shorewall/tcrules. It may
contain :<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [&lt;user name or number&gt;]:[&lt;group
name or number&gt;]<br>
<br>
The colon is optionnal when specifying only a user.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Examples : john: / john / :users /
john:users<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>A "detectnets" interface option has been added for entries
in
/etc/shorewall/interfaces. This option automatically taylors the
definition of the zone named in the ZONE column to include just&nbsp;
those
hosts that have routes through the interface named in the INTERFACE
column. The named interface must be UP when Shorewall is [re]started.<br>
<br>
&nbsp;WARNING: DO NOT SET THIS OPTION ON YOUR INTERNET INTERFACE!

<p><b>1/17/2004 - FAQ Wiki Available&nbsp;</b><b></b></p>
It has been asserted that the use of CVS for maintaining the
Shorewall documentation has been a barrier to community participation.
To test this theory, Alex Martin <a
href="http://wiki.rettc.com/wiki.phtml?title=Wiki_Shorewall_FAQ">has
created a Wiki</a> and with the help of Mike Noyes has populated the
Wiki with the Shorewall FAQ.

Effective today, I am reducing my participation in the day-to-day
support of Shorewall. As part of this shift to community-based
Shorewall support a new <a
href="https://lists.shorewall.net/mailman/listinfo/shorewall-newbies">Shorewall
Newbies mailing list</a> has been established to field questions
and problems from new users. I will not monitor that list
personally. I will continue my active development of Shorewall and
will be available via the development list to handle development
issues -- Tom.
