<term>EXPORTPARAMS (Added in versions 3.2.9 and 3.4.0 RC2)</term>
<listitem>
<para>It is quite difficult to code a 'params' file that assigns
other than constant values such that it works correctly with
Shorewall Lite. The EXPORTPARAMS option works around this problem.
When EXPORTPARAMS=No, the 'params' file is not copied to the
compiler output.</para>
<para>With EXPORTPARAMS=No, if you need to set environmental
variables on the firewall system for use by your extension scripts,
then do so in the init extension script.</para>
<para>The default is EXPORTPARAMS=Yes which causes the 'params' file
to be copied to the compiler output and to be executed at
run-time.</para>
