<p>"The configuration is intuitive and flexible, and much easier than any
|
||
of the other iptables-based firewall programs out there. After sifting through
|
||
many other scripts, it is obvious that yours is the most well thought-out
|
||
and complete one available." -- BC, USA</p>
|
||
<p>"I just installed Shorewall after weeks of messing with ipchains/iptables
|
||
and I had it up and running in under 20 minutes!" -- JL, Ohio<br>
|
||
</p>
|
||
"My case was almost like [the one above]. Well. instead of 'weeks' it was
|
||
'months' for me, and I think I needed two minutes more:<br>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>One to see that I had no Internet access from the firewall itself.</li>
|
||
<li>Other to see that this was the default configuration, and it was
|
||
enough to uncomment a line in /etc/shorewall/policy.<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
|
||
</ul>
|
||
Minutes instead of months! Congratulations and thanks for such a simple
|
||
and well documented thing for something as huge as iptables." -- JV, Spain.
|
||
|
||
<p>"I downloaded Shorewall 1.2.0 and installed it on Mandrake 8.1 without
|
||
any problems. Your documentation is great and I really appreciate
|
||
your network configuration info. That really helped me out alot. THANKS!!!"

<p>"[Shorewall is a] great, great project. I've used/tested may firewall
|
||
scripts but this one is till now the best." -- B.R, Netherlands
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"Never in my +12 year career as a sys admin have I witnessed someone
|
||
so relentless in developing a secure, state of the art, safe and useful
|
||
product as the Shorewall firewall package for no cost or obligation
|
||
involved." -- Mario Kerecki, Toronto </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"one time more to report, that your great shorewall in the latest
|
||
release 1.2.9 is working fine for me with SuSE Linux 7.3! I now
|
||
have 7 machines up and running with shorewall on several versions -
|
||
starting with 1.2.2 up to the new 1.2.9 and I never have encountered
|
||
any problems!" -- SM, Germany</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"You have the best support of any other package I've ever used."
|
||
-- SE, US </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"Because our company has information which has been classified by the
|
||
national government as secret, our security doesn't stop by putting a fence
|
||
around our company. Information security is a hot issue. We also make use
|
||
of checkpoint firewalls, but not all of the internet servers are guarded
|
||
by checkpoint, some of them are running....Shorewall." -- Name withheld

||

|
||
|
||
<p>"thanx for all your efforts you put into shorewall - this product stands
|
||
out against a lot of commercial stuff i<>ve been working with in terms of
|
||
flexibillity, quality & support" -- RM, Austria</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"I have never seen such a complete firewall package that is so easy to
|
||
configure. I searched the Debian package system for firewall scripts and
|
||
Shorewall won hands down." -- RG, Toronto</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>"My respects... I've just found and installed Shorewall 1.3.3-1 and it
|
||
is a wonderful piece of software. I've just sent out an email to about
|
||
30 people recommending it. :-)<br>
|
||
While I had previously taken the time (maybe 40 hours) to really understand
|
||
ipchains, then spent at least an hour per server customizing and carefully
|
||
scrutinizing firewall rules, I've got shorewall running on my home firewall,
|
||
with rulesets and policies that I know make sense, in under 20 minutes."
